You've been given erroneous information: pasque flowers do not live in Antarctica.
The pasque flower (Genus Pulsatilla) is a dicot.
The Arctic tundra pasque flower is primarily consumed by herbivores such as caribou, muskoxen, and Arctic hares. These animals graze on the vegetation found in the tundra biome, including the pasque flower. The flower's low height and accessibility make it a common food source for these herbivores during the short Arctic summer.
Pasque flowers typically bloom in early spring, around March or April, depending on the region. They are one of the first flowers to bloom in the spring and can be found in a range of colors from deep purple to pale pink.
They are covered in small, fine hairs for insulation and grow near the ground for warmth
Pretty flowers...that should not be disturbed by ugly humans! :P
Pasque flowers are a food source for various herbivores such as rabbits, deer, and certain insects like beetles and caterpillars. These animals consume pasque flowers for their nutrients and energy, which can have an impact on the population of the plant in certain areas.

The arctic and antarctic (too cold), and in deserts (no flowers).
Pasque flowers have a niche as early blooming plants in temperate regions, providing important food sources for early emerging pollinators like bees and butterflies. They are also adapted to grow in nutrient-poor soils, helping to stabilize and improve soil quality in their ecosystem. Additionally, pasque flowers are known to be toxic to some herbivores, which can help protect them from being eaten.
All flowers are producers. This means that they make their energy by harnessing it from the sun light. They make their own food as well.
The scientific name for a pasque flower is Pulsatilla.
arctic hare live in the arctic when other hares don't live in the arctic
