It is unknown whether life on this planet started on this planet or migrated here due to the proximity of the other habitable planet with life on it, though it has no forms of complex multicellular animal life save for simple insects and 4-meter-long velvet worms
Why is this a Barren?Your planet has an unusual composition that doesn't fit standard classifications, or lacks the elements needed for complex geological processes.
Barren worlds can form from uncommon element combinations or may be remnants of larger bodies that lost their atmospheres and volatile materials.

Contributing Factors
water88
Abundant water - mostly frozen
geology90
Active geology recycles nutrients and drives carbon cycle
rotation100
Optimal rotation period - balanced day/night cycle, moderate weather, and good heat distribution
Organic Chemistry80
Core organic elements (CHNO) present
atmosphere70
Nitrogen atmosphere provides protection but not breathable
temperature70
Challenging but potentially habitable temperature
magnetic Field100
Magnetic field provides radiation protection
