Question

b) Why do the polar regions experience such extreme weather?​

Answer 1

But even during the polar day, the period of continuous sunlight, only a relatively small amount of solar energy reaches the Arctic or Antarctic regions due to the low angle of incoming rays. These two phenomena thus form the basis for sustained cold conditions in the northern and southern polar regions.....

Answer 2

Answer:

Their adaptations include: a white appearance - as camouflage from prey on the snow and ice. thick layers of fat and fur - for insulation against the cold. a small surface area to volume ratio - to minimise heat loss a greasy coat that sheds water after swimming - to help reduce heat loss.
