The difference is that in the arctic there are Polar bears and in the antarctic there are penguins. You will never find a polar bear in the antarctic and you will never find a penguin in the arctic.
The Arctic is located around the North Pole, while Antarctica is located around the South Pole. The Arctic is an ocean surrounded by continents, while Antarctica is a continent surrounded by oceans. The Arctic has a diverse range of wildlife, including polar bears and narwhals, while Antarctica has a more limited range of species, including penguins and seals.
The Arctic and Antarctic circles are named after the regions they mark. The Arctic Circle is named after the constellation Ursa Major, known as the Great Bear or "arctic bear," while the Antarctic Circle is named after the opposite direction of the Arctic Circle on the globe.
Arctic sea ice is typically between 1-3 meters thick, while Antarctic land-based ice sheets can be several kilometers thick. Antarctica contains the largest ice sheet in the world, with an average thickness of about 2,160 meters.
Both are polar, but Antarctica is about 30 degrees F colder than the Arctic. Antarctica is a continent, there are only northern expanses of continents near the Arctic. There are native and indigenous peoples in the Arctic, and no humans in Antarctica. Antarctica is governed by the Antarctic Treaty, which governs all land and ice south of 60 degrees S. Many governments argue over the use and governance of Arctic waters.
Antarctica is colder than the Arctic. The average temperature in Antarctica is around -49 degrees Celsius (-56 degrees Fahrenheit), while the Arctic's average temperature is around -34 degrees Celsius (-29 degrees Fahrenheit).
The Arctic Circle is located in the Northern Hemisphere, while the Antarctic Circle is in the Southern Hemisphere. The Arctic Circle surrounds the North Pole, while the Antarctic Circle surrounds the South Pole. The Arctic Circle has Arctic tundra vegetation, while the Antarctic Circle is largely covered in ice.
the arctic is in the north pole and antarctica is in the south.
The region between the Arctic Circle and the North Pole is called the Arctic region. The region between the Antarctic Circle and the South Pole is called the Antarctic region.
An Arctic tern is a migratory bird, Latin name Sterna paradisaea, which travels between the Arctic and the Antarctic.
