polar bears and penguins
Another Answer
No animals live on Antarctica. Sea animals, however, to visit Antarctica beaches to breed, because there are no land predators on the continent. (There are no polar bears on Antarctica.)
Whales are sea animals and Antarctica is a continent. Whales survive in the Southern Ocean -- which surrounds Antarctica -- because it is their natural habitat when the ocean is free of ice.
Antarctica is a continent. Fish are sea animals. The Southern Ocean habitat -- that surrounds the Antarctic continent -- is native to fish that survive and thrive there.
All animals in Antarctica -- those that come to the continent to breed -- feed in the sea. Exceptions are made when carnivorous animals find baby animals unattended on the ice, in which case the babies provide food. There is no food chain in Antarctica: it's too cold.
There are no houses in Antarctica; there's no need for them. Lately, the smartest buildings in Antarctica are built on stilts. This protects them from wind-blown ice mounting on one side of the building.
No animals live on the Antarctic continent. Animals that come to the ice to breed are sea animals and feed themselves from the marine food chain, which is rich and abundant.
No. You can melt ice or desalinate sea water to obtain sufficient drinking water.
because the ice is melting
Ice and fungus under your toes and maybe a few dandelions
Yes. Phytoplankton (algae) grow under the ice shelves of Antarctica. Warmer water is affecting the growth of phytoplanktons. Krill (zooplankton) need them to survive. These two are vital links in the food chain of the Antarctic. Penguins need krill and the fish that feed on krill. Climate change is damaging the food chain in Antarctica and threatening the lives of all the animals there, including the penguins.
Animals in Antarctica need ice bergs because (pretend we're talking about penguins and polar bears) They need to be safe and cant just keep swimming like fish even though they can hold their breath for a long time. Because of Global warming, All the ice is melting and the animals can go extinct.
they don't have any food they only have animals and ice.
Ice covers Antarctica to an average thickness of 2,133 meters (7,000 feet). If all the Antarctic ice melted, because all this ice is on land, it would raise sea levels around the world by about 61 meters (200 feet). The events that would be necessary to cause this though, would require an external event such as an asteroid hitting the planet.
