Antarctica

They could kill animals there for food, shelter and warmth, resulting in extinction of animals. The ice could melt faster due to increase in surrounding temperature, leading to rising sea levels that can submerge low lying countries.

The most common plant in Antarctica is moss. Specifically, Antarctic hair grass (Deschampsia antarctica) is one of the few plant species that can survive in the harsh conditions of the continent.

Yes! electricity refers to electrons, photons, and their interactions, so you'll be pleased to know that electrons are plentiful in every structure of the universe, and thanks to Stephen hawking, we are now aware that even the vacuum of space is not truly a vacuum as it is permiated with virtual electron/positron pairs, these require a great deal of energy to become aparent, which is why we did not know this for so long.

It is not appropriate or accurate to label someone as "the darkest person in the world" based on their skin color. Skin color is determined by genetics and is not an indicator of a person's character, abilities, or value. It is important to treat all individuals with respect and dignity regardless of their physical appearance.

The average temperature in Dry Valleys, Antarctica, is around -20°C (-4°F) during the Antarctic summer and can drop to around -60°C (-76°F) in the winter. The region is one of the driest and coldest places on Earth, with very low humidity and minimal precipitation.

It was called the piri reis map. In 1929, a group of historians found an amazing map drawn on a gazelle skin. Research showed that it was a genuine document drawn in 1513 by Piri Reis, a famous admiral of the Turkish fleet in the sixteenth century. His passion was cartography. Since he had a high rank in the Turkish navy he had acces to the library of constantinople. The Turkish admiral admits in a series of notes on the map that he compiled and copied the data from a large number of source maps, some of which dated back to the fourth century BC or earlier.

There was some controversy as the map shows the western coast of Africa, the eastern coast of South America, and the northern coast of Antarctica. The northern coastline of Antarctica is perfectly detailed. The most puzzling however is not so much how Piri Reis managed to draw such an accurate map of the Antarctic region 300 years before it was discovered, but that the map shows the coastline under the ice. this has caused the devate. geological evidence confirms that the latest date Queen Maud Land could have been charted in an ice-free state is 4000 BC.

Lichen, Algae, Seaweed, Fur grass, Moss, Liverwort, Pearl-wort.

Antarctica has only two species of flowering plants. Antarctic hair grass (Deschampsia antarctica) and Antarctic pearlwort (Colobanthus quitensis) are found on the South Orkney Islands, the South Shetland Islands, and along the western Antarctic Peninsula.

Moss, Linchen, Grass, Algae and Fungi.

Yes, "Antarctic" should be capitalized when referring to the region around the South Pole.

• Q= What is the Bentley Sub-Glacial trench?A= The Sub-Glacial is about 2,540 meters (8,333 feet) below sea level, the Bentley Sub-glacial Trench is the world's lowest dry elevation. Located in Western Antarctica, it was named for geologist Charles R. Bentley, currently a professor at the University of Wisconsin. Oddly enough, the the trench floor is covered by over 3,000 meters of snow and ice, which actually puts its surface above sea level.

Penguins in Antarctica display a uniform distribution, where individuals are evenly spaced across their breeding grounds. This may be due to limited resources or territorial behavior that promotes spacing out individuals.

Color assignments on maps of concentrations of any constituent are arbitrary, and provided as a key on the map. There is no "natural" means of providing such a representative color. On the maps provided by the US-NASA, high ozone concentrations are yellow or white, and low concentrations are depected as dark blue, with intermediate values usually in red. So on US-NASA maps, the ozone hole is usually shown as a red circle with a blue center, when it is winter at that pole. See the link below.

Features of Tundra: No trees, permanently frozen soil, the sun doesn't rise for six months a year, average temp of -30 F, low plants, less than 10 inches of precipitation a year, only two seasons; winter and summer.

it depends on how u ask the question. You can take computers to antarctica but you will not have an internet connection. But there could be computers cauculating information if that is what you are asking. If you need me to answer any questions look at my page on Twitter Sportsdude1561

None. There was a net gain of ice in Antarctica in 2008, and also a new record set of total sea ice, eclipsing the last record high by millions or square kilometers.

Snow in Utah generally stops falling in late March or early April, although it can vary depending on the region and elevation. The snowmelt typically continues through the spring months of April and May.

The coldest temperature recorded in Antarctica in 1983 was -84.6 degrees Celsius (-120 degrees Fahrenheit).

i think the rivers of ice in Antarctica are called glaciers.

People in Antarctica typically drink water, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and occasionally alcoholic beverages. It's important to stay hydrated in the cold climate, so water is usually the primary choice. Alcohol consumption is limited due to its effects on the body's ability to regulate temperature in extreme cold conditions.

Antarctica is a continent of approximately 14,000,000 sq km completely in

the Southern Hemisphere.

In addition, part of Antarctica is also in the eastern hemisphere, and the

rest of it is also in the western one.

The South Pole is located on Antarctica.

In Alaska, the longest day occurs on or around June 21st, known as the summer solstice, when the sun is up for about 22 hours. Conversely, the longest night happens on or around December 21st, known as the winter solstice, when the sun may be up for only a few hours in some parts of Alaska.

Yes the sun does shine in Antarctica because without sunlight there is not daylight.

What you will find is that there is almost continuous sunlight in the Summertime, with the sun setting as late as 11:30pm and rising as early as 3:30am, whilst Winter sees six months of almost continuous darkness. Around Christmas itself (the southern summer), sunlight is continuous for 24 hours for a couple of weeks, whilst in mid-June (the southern winter) for a couple of weeks, there is no sunlight at all.

Plant fossils found in Antarctica suggest that the continent was once covered in vegetation, indicating a warmer climate. Coal beds in Antarctica further support this idea, as they are formed from the remains of ancient plant material that grew in a more temperate environment. These findings provide evidence that Antarctica experienced periods of warmer temperatures in the past.

Yes, geologists in Antarctica may test water as part of their research to understand the geology, hydrology, and environmental conditions in the region. Testing water samples can provide valuable information on factors such as ice melt, mineral content, and potential impact of climate change on Antarctic ecosystems.

Tom Crean participated in three expeditions to Antarctica. He accompanied Robert Falcon Scott on the Discovery Expedition in 1901–1904, then Ernest Shackleton on the Nimrod Expedition in 1907–1909, and finally Shackleton again on the ill-fated Endurance Expedition in 1914–1917.

At the South Pole, no matter which direction you take a step in, you will start walking towards the North. This is because the South Pole is the southernmost point on Earth, and all directions from there lead towards the North.
