Ice has a smaller density than water therefore it can float on water instead of sinking to the bottom. Unlike the south pole there is no land mass to support the ice. The only thing that makes up th noth polar ice cap is ice.
That is the correct spelling of the proper noun "Arctic Ocean" (the northern polar sea).
True
The Arctic Ocean surrounds the Northern polar ice cap. As such, the only US state that it touches is Alaska, along the northern coast.
It is Alaska. The Arctic Ocean is the body of saltwater that surrounds the northern polar ice cap. The only US state to border the Arctic Ocean is Alaska.

The Arctic Ocean is located in the northern hemisphere and mostly in the Arctic polar region. It is almost completely surrounded by Eurasia and North America.
Polar bears live in the tundra, near the coast. They can be found all around the Arctic Ocean, including Russia, northern Europe, Canada, and Alaska. During the cold months of the year, polar bears hunt for seals by traveling on the sea ice that covers the Arctic Ocean.
Polar bears are found, not in the ocean, but in the land and ice floes surrounding the Arctic Ocean.
The northernmost polar region of the Northern Hemisphere is called the Arctic Region.
Northern hemisphere polar regions are called the ARCTIC. Southern hemisphere polar regions are called the ANTARCTIC.
No. They are polar opposites. The Arctic is the northern polar environment and Antarctica is the southern polar environment.
