Antarctica

No animal lives in Antarctica: it's too cold and there is no food chain.

Some marine birds and marine mammals come to Antarctica' beaches to breed.

Some penguin species are considered endangered, and you can read more about them, below.

Antarctica is more than 5 million square miles, 98% of which is covered with an ice sheet.

There is no commercial access to Antarctica, except for tour boats which frequent parts of Antarctica's beaches, especially in the Antarctic Peninsula.

On a privately funded expedition, you can go anywhere in Antarctica once you receive the appropriate permits. Be aware that you are responsible for not only all expenses, but for all safety precautions, rescue operations and the health of all your expedition members.

Ernest Shackleton was an explorer of Antarctica.

Rather I'm sure you will be Rolling your way through very thick (5FT At least) snow,

The boots will act as a insulator, Keeping your feet warm and Preventing snow from getting in

Hope this helps.

Since Antarctica is mostly a Ice-covered landmass, yes.

However there are portions that are just perma-frozen sea, like the Arctic.

There are about 31 countries with a presence on Antarctica. Six of these support summer-only facilities.

Under the terms of the Antarctic Treaty, all research conducted is shared with all countries that either signed or ratified the treaty, which means that all research is shared among nation-states representing 80% of the population of planet Earth.

About 12,440 miles.

Seasons are not dramatically different, except that the amount of sunlight differs dramatically from summer to winter. Temperatures on the continent are consistently too cold to support life or any kind of food chain. Since no substantive vegetation grows there, there is no visible difference in the seasons.

Since 98% of the continent is covered by ice, the sheet has different names in different places.

For example, at the South Pole, the ice is called the Polar Plateau.

Yes. The coldest temperatures on earth have been recorded at Vostok Station.

At both poles, beyond about 66 degrees of latitude, there is at least one 24-hour period without a sunset/ sunrise, annually.

All of Antarctica lies beyond 66 degrees S, so the periods can be days, weeks or months without a sunset..

Predictably, everywhere on Antarctica experiences no sunset on mid-summer's day, which is December 21.

Antarctica is realatively untouched by human activity. Bringing tourism to Antarctica would in time cause damage to Antarctica. To support tourism (besides cruise ships) facilities would have to be constructed thereby damaging the environment. Humans cause pollution which would damage the environment and kill wildlife.

No, it is actually an ice sheet or ice cap. 98% of Antarctica is buried under ice, in places more than 12,000 feet thick. Antarctica has many glaciers, including those that push into the Southern Ocean along its shores. Even larger structures, the ice shelves, extend into the ocean for many kilometers.

Breakfast choices in Antarctica depend on the research station. The food and food stuffs imported to feed workers is based on national dietary standards.

There are no paved roads or dirt roads commonly seen on every other continent.

In Antarctica, 'roads' are traveled pathways, often marked on the ice by bamboo poles that fly flags, which are installed about every 10 feet, and which are most commonly used by pedestrians.

There is no travel in Antarctica which is familiar on every other continent: movement is generally confined to the few square kilometers within which a research station is located.

destroy every factory in the world and pollution causing stuff.

Because at the ends / poles of the earth the sun's energy arrives at an oblique angle, spreading over a larger area, and also travels a longer distance through the Earth's atmosphere in which it may be absorbed, scattered or reflected.

Antarctica is not 'split up'. The surface of the continent is trans-sected by the Trans-Antarctic Mountain Range, and often this demarcation separates east from west Antarctica.

Nation-states have laid claim to Antarctic territory, in pie-shaped 'slices' that follow lines of longitude, all of which converge at the South Pole. Some of these claims overlap each other The Antarctic Treaty acknowledges all claims and holds them in abeyance, and prohibits future claims.

Assuming you mean "What is located in the center of Antarctica" the answer is most likely to be - the South Pole.

The continent of Antarctica is surrounded by the Southern Ocean.

Whales feed in the Southern Ocean, which surrounds Antarctica, for one main reason: the food source.

Similarities They both have very cold temperatures, particularly Antarctica. Antarctica is the coldest place on Earth They're both large islands, but you could fit around five Greenlands into Antarctica. Antarctica is the largest island in the world, followed by Australia They're both mostly in one of the circle, but they both go out of that circle Neither of them touch the tropics Differences Greenland is entirely in the Northern Hemisphere, and Antarctica is entirely in the Southern Hemisphere Whatever season it is in Greenland, it's always the opposite season in Antarctica, and whatever season it is in Antarctica, it's always the opposite season in Greenland They're both very far away from the equator. Greenland isn't the most northerly place in the world, even Northern Greenland isn't, but Antarctica is the most southerly place in the world and Antarctica touches the South Pole, but Greenland doesn't touch the North Pole. The Arctic Ocean touches the North Pole, so the South Pole is covered by frozen land of Antarctica, but the North Pole is covered by frozen saltwater of the Arctic Ocean, so the South Pole is colder than the North Pole Greenland borders onto two oceans, the North Atlantic Ocean and the Arctic Ocean, but Antarctica only borders onto one ocean, the Southern Ocean. Although Antarctica is colder than Greenland, the coast of Antarctica is warmer than the coast of Greenland. In the south coast of Tasmania which is the Southern Ocean, the beach can be lovely and warm and people relax on it, but you'd never see people in the sea because of cold currents, but the Arctic Ocean has even colder currents Greenland has a North Coast, a West Coast, a South Coast and an East Coast, but Antarctica is the only island in the world that doesn't have a North Coast, a West Coast, a South Coast and an East Coast because it covers the South Pole and there is nothing on Earth further south than the South Pole, and the same with the North Pole, nothing on Earth further north than the North Pole.
