The correct answer to this question is True. Antarctica is a continent that is further south than any of the other continents. It is home to the South Pole. It is covered in ice and is uninhabited. To give an idea of how cold Antarctica is, the coldest temperature it has ever had is negative 128 degrees Fahrenheit.

Along with being extremely cold, the continent is also dry, having low humidity. Another unique feature of the continent is that it is windy. Winds can reach up to 200mph. With the wind, cold weather, and low humidity, it makes it impossible for a person to live there.
