Due to the permafrost the water in the soil remains frozen for most of the year. In the summer the top of the permafrost may be covered with water due to melting in the area. Weathering is also common in polar regions. These soils tend to not have an abundant amount of vegetation but bacteria has been found.

Answer:
The dry and harsh climate does not allow much vegetation to grow in the Polar regions. Due to the permafrost the water in the soil remains frozen for most of the year. In the summer the top of the permafrost may be covered with water due to melting in the area. Weathering is also common in polar regions. Combinations of mosses, lichens, sedges, grasses, and dwarf woody shrubs dominate most Arctic tundra, and miniature flowering plants dominate the polar deserts.
