a) Strong winds
b) High altitude
c) Away from the sun
d) More rainfall
Answer »Answer: (b)
Both the Arctic (North Pole) and the Antarctic (South Pole) are cold because they don’t get any direct sunlight. What makes the South Pole so much colder than the North Pole is that it sits on top of a very thick ice sheet, which itself sits on a continent.
The surface of the ice sheet at the South Pole is more than 9,000 feet in elevation—more than a mile and a half above sea level. This elevation makes the South Pole much colder than the North Pole, which sits in the middle of the Arctic Ocean (National Geographic).
