The Earth is home to two polar ice caps; high latitude regions of a   \n1  \nplanet or natural satellite covered in ice.  \n1  \nThe high latitude of polar ice caps causes these dom2ainsto receive less energy in the form of  \nsolar radiation from the sun than equatorial regions do, 3  \nwhich results in lower surface temperatures.  \n1. A. NO CHANGE  \nB. two polar ice caps high latitude regions of a planet or natural satellite covered in ice.  \nC. two polar ice caps: high latitude regions of a planet or natural satellite covered in ice.  \nD. two polar ice caps.

Ice caps can also grow or shrink due to climate variation. Global warming is expected to cause more ice to melt, reducing the energy reflected back to  \nspace and to increase the energy absorbed at the surface. 6  \nThis would cause the affected portions ofthe Earth to  \nwarm.  \nIf the most dire of the widespread global warming theories is accurate, the polar ice caps should be receding significantly.
