How are desert rabbits and Arctic rabbits different?
As the largest of the hares, arctic hares need special adaptations and behavior to survive in cold Arctic winters. Their ears are much shorter than those of desert hares. Shorter ears mean that the hares can warm themselves more efficiently; their hearts don't have to pump blood so far from the center of their bodies.
How are the tundra and desert similar and different?
Deserts are similar to tundras cause they both experience extremely high temperatures with little rain. It is also difficult for crops to grow in these areas. Both tundras and deserts get about 10 inches or less of rain per year and lots of bushes as well as trees. They both expierience extreme tempatures.
Is Antarctica all ice?
Its size varies through the seasons, as expanding sea ice along the coast nearly doubles the continent's size in the winter. Almost all of Antarctica is covered with ice; less than half a percent of the vast wilderness is ice-free. The continent is divided into two regions, known as East and West Antarctica.

Why cant a polar bear survive in a desert?
