Why don't Seals freeze to death in the Arctic Ocean?
Seals have a thick layer of fat around their bodies, plus oily, waterproof fur to help insulate them.
How does the polar bear survive in the Arctic environment?
Polar bears have white fur which lets them blend in with the snow. They eat seals and other arctic animals. They also have a thick layer of fat to help insulate them from the cold.
How does the color of a polar bear help it live in the arctic?
White fur is harder to see against a background of white snow. And since polar bears hunt seals, it is to their advantage to be able to sneak up on seals without being seen too early.it helps it camouflage in the snow
What are people that track icebergs called?
People who track icebergs are commonly referred to as iceberg monitors or iceberg trackers. They use satellites, aircraft, and other technology to monitor the movement and location of icebergs to help ships navigate safely through icy waters.

What animals live at the North Pole?
There is no actual land at the North Pole itself, but the area has plenty of Arctic ice. Many people consider that the North Pole is the same as the Arctic, but in fact the North Pole is only a small section of the Arctic. For the purposes of this question, creatures of both the North Pole and Arctic will be included, as no animals actually live on the North Pole.Polar bears are the dominant land animal on the Arctic ice, and while they generally do not travel as far north as the North Pole (due to lack of food), tracks on the North Pole ice have apparently been recorded. Polar bears often feed on seals, which are amphibious, meaning they are mammals that live in water and on land. Therefore, it can be assumed that seals are also found in the Arctic regions - particularly Harp Seals. Northern Fur Seals are found within the Arctic but also not at the North Pole.There are many marine and semi-aquatic mammals in the Arctic Ocean surrounding the North Pole. These include the Beluga whale, Killer whale, narwhal and walrus.Zooplankton are tiny animals found in seas everywhere, with some being adapted to the icy waters of the Arctic and North Pole. Shrimp and amphipods are also found near the North Pole.Migratory birds that visit the Arctic include the Arctic tern, Snow goose and puffin. Other birds observed near the North pole are the Snow Bunting, Northern Fulmar and Black-legge Kittiwake.Other mammals that live in the regions of the Arctic where land is found, but not at the North Pole, include the ermine, caribou, wolverine, reindeer, short-tailed weasel, musk ox, ermine, Dall sheep, Arctic wolf, Arctic fox and Arctic hare. The Greenland Shark swims in the icy Arctic waters, and the Snowy owl can be found on the fringes of the Arctic circle.Contrary to common misconception, there are no penguinsat the North Pole.
Where is the Arctic hare's ecosystem?
In the tundra or arctic biomes. Especially in greenland, canada, the Arctic circle. :) happy to help
Can someone help think of a catchy title that involves sinking and floating?
I'm sinking but my heart is floating.
What does the Arctic fox do good for its environment?
Arctic foxes help control populations of small animals such as lemmings and Arctic hares.
How do Arctic whales keep warm?
Animals native to arctic regions are highly adapted to their environment, with dense fur or feathers to insulate their bodies and retain the warmth that they generate. Polar bears and arctic wolves and foxes have white fur and dark skin to help attain and absorb sunlight to help in keeping them warm. Seals also have very dense fur, but they are kept warm by thick layers of blubber (fat) just like whales (which do not have protective fur).
Which of the following does Archimedes' principle help to explain?
Floating
Do seal help fish?
No Seals eat fish.
