The smaller the surface area, the less body heat the animal will lose. So small surface area to volume ratios are great in cold environments.
Yes, the Arctic desert is colder than Mars. While temperatures in the Arctic can drop below -40°C, the average surface temperature of Mars is around -60°C. Additionally, the lack of a significant atmosphere on Mars contributes to greater temperature fluctuations compared to Earth.
The North Pole is not on any continent. It is an imaginary point on the Earth's surface that can be reached by travelling over the Arctic Ice Sheet, which forms on the surface of the Arctic Ocean.
The Arctic is a sea bed: Antarctica is a continent, and a desert with less than five percent humidity. Snow in the Arctic collects on sea ice or melts when it falls into the Arctic Ocean. There is no snow in Antarctica, rather ice crystals that blow in the constant wind.
Greenland is the gigantic island primarily in the Arctic Circle. With 85% of its surface covered in ice, it is the world's largest island.

The Arctic Ocean covers roughly 9% of the Earth's surface.

No.
The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest ocean of the four: Indian, Arctic, Atlantic, and Pacific Oceans. Thus, the Arctic Ocean is smaller. When comparing the north Pacific Ocean, the Arctic Ocean is still smaller.
