No, the supercontinent that began to break apart about 225 million years ago was called Pangaea. Antarctica was part of Pangaea before the continents drifted into their current positions.

Is Antarctica the name of the super continent that began to break apart 225 million years ago?

The name of the super continent was Gondwanna (sometimes as Gondwana). When it broke up, Australia and the other southern continents split from each other. And the Indian sub-continent headed off in a roughly northern direction to collide with Asia and create the Himalayas, which are still growing. At an earlier time, the Northern super continent and the Southern one were believed to be one super continent, Pangaea. The northern collection of continents and major islands was Laurasia, and the Southern one Gondwanna.
