Adaptations The plants have adapted to the wind blowing hard and soil messing up. The plants are short and are next to each other to resist low temperatures and are protected by the snow. Photosynthesis is brought out at low temperatures. They do not have a lot of sun light because the sun does not come out until later in the day.
Adaptations The roots could not go deep, so there are only plants that have small roots, that is way small plants are there.
Climate In winter, it is a average of -34 degrees Celsius and in the summer it is 3 to 12 degrees Celsius
