Arctic

There are not very many plants in the arctic lowlands. There are not many trees or anything that has flowers. There is just mainly shrubs and lichen.

Your answer depends on where you are on the continent.

On the Antarctic Peninsula -- near the Antarctic Circle, you only experience one day of no sunset. At the South Pole, the period is six months.

not a long enough growing season

the most important would be nonpourous skin (skin than is resistant to absorbing water) or fur or feathers that accomplish the same thing. Then there would have to be an efficent way of getting nutrients, if its is difficult to capture or find food, plants or animals ,it is unlikely that the animals would survive. These would be the most important but there could be many others that would help.

Your answer depends on the type of emergency.

Antarctica is isolated, unsettled and lacks resources you can find in more civilized locations.

Generally, people who work and live there -- in support of science -- take care of each other.

Yes, especially mosquitoes.

that is one of the best questions I have seen on here!

surely the answer is nothing! as all the ice and snow just preserve everythying when it dies. And given that they can find a truly ancient man in the alps, who is frozen for thousands of years, I stand by my original answer!

all sorts of fish you name it and its in there:) i promise.

They were made of huge ice blocks. The Inuit packed snow between the cracks to keep the building warm.

The Arctic Circle is a line of latitude roughly 66 and 1/2 degrees north of the Equator. The North Pole is the center of that circle.

The arctic is the region of the world that has at least one 24 hour period per year that the sun does not rise and at least one 24 hour period per year where the sun does not go down. This is known as the arctic circle. As such, the arctic tundra is tundra located within the arctic region. Alpine is that area of the planet that is above the tree line. The tree line is determined by how cold a region gets. I believe that in order for trees to grow, the temperature must not dip below a certain temperature. Hence you will notice the tree line (or Alpine) level differs depending upon the variant temperatures in a particular region. In short, the colder the area, the lower the tree line. In the final analysis, the difference between the two types of tundra is a matter of location. Simplified, basically the alpine tundra is in the mountains and the arctic tundra is like the snowy icy place that we see on TV and think about mostly.

Grasses that grow on the tundra.

coastal lowlands= a narrow strip of relitive low land land fringing the edge of the continent, it's elevation is between 200-600m above sea-level. most of Australia's population is found in this area.

The Arctic Lowlands were formed at the end of Pleistocene epoch (the last ice age). The enormous weight of the glacier sunk the Canadian Shield and the area became lowlands when the glaciers retreated, same as the Hudson Bay Lowlands. And the area is possibly rising, like Scandanavia which is still rising.

The country's mainland is bordered to the south and east by the Mediterranean Sea except for a small land boundary with Gibraltar; to the north and northeast by the Bay of Biscay; and to the west and northwest by the Atlantic Ocean.

The Arctic is crucial for several reasons, including its role in regulating the Earth's climate by influencing global weather patterns and ocean currents. It acts as a significant carbon sink, helping to mitigate climate change. Additionally, the Arctic is rich in biodiversity and natural resources, supporting unique ecosystems and providing opportunities for sustainable development. Its geopolitical significance is also increasing due to melting ice, which opens new shipping routes and access to untapped resources.

there are five top rivers that flow into the actic and they are the Mackenzie, Yukon,(both in North America) Ob, Yenisey, and Lena all three of these are from Asia. From here one can find out which of the five are the three most large rivers.

The soil is permafrost (permanently frozen layer of ground) in the arctic. During the brief summers it thaws out just enough for plants and microorganisms to grow.

Wolves have been known to swim for short distances due to hunting food or as a defense mechanism. However, wolves cannot swim in the ocean as these animals can only swim for short distances.

The northernmost state is North Dakota (N.D.). North Dakota is the 39th US state in the union since November 2, 1889.

they have this thick white fur that protects them from the cold. It also helps them to hunt unnoticed. During winter they live off the Polar bear's left-overs. but in summer, they hunt and bread just like any other kinds of foxes.
