Earth has two polar regions. the arctic and the Antarctica.
Arctic is a sea of ice surrounded by land.The ice you are standing on is 1m to 3m thick floating on the Arctic Ocean, it is made of frozen sea water with some snow on top, sea level is usually no more than 1m below your feet.
Antarctica, by contrast, is a land surrounded by water. it is an entire continent to itself located in the southern hemisphere.

Antarctica is significantly colder than the Arctic. The main reason for this is that Antarctica is a high continent covered by a very think layer of ice, whereas the Arctic benefits from the tempering effects of the ocean.

Because they are on opposite sides of the world, the Arctic and the Antarctic do not share the same seasons.
when arctic has 6 months of summer ,Antarctica has 6 months of winter. when arctic has 6 months of winter , Antarctica has 6 months summer.

Polar bears only exist in the Arctic.there are walrus, Arctic fox, Arctic hares, reindeer, puffins and other types of animals in the Arctic that do not live in the Antarctic.
Penguins are only seen in Antarctica. There are no penguins in the Arctic.there are various types of regional seals in Antarctica, like
the Leopard seal, the Weddell seal, Crabeater seal, and Elephant seal, all of whom do not exist outside of Antarctica.

Approximately 1,700 species of plants live on the Arctic , including flowering plants, dwarf shrubs, herbs, grasses, mosses, and lichens.
The Antarctic has very little vegetation, mostly lichens, algae and moss. There are only two flowering plans in Antarctica.Antarctic hair grass and Antarctic pearlwort.

Numerous populations live in the arctic.The South Pole remained untouched by human presence until 1821. Today still, this southern continent does not have any permanent inhabitants, only scientist visit now and then to the research station in Antarctica.
