Oxygen is the 3rd most abundant element in the Milky Way Galaxy, and since Antarctica is a continent on earth, it's reasonable that oxygen be available there.

As well, cold water holds more dissolved O2 than warmer water.

Where does oxygen come from in Antarctic?

In Antarctica, oxygen primarily comes from two sources: the surrounding ocean and the atmosphere. The Southern Ocean waters surrounding Antarctica are rich in oxygen, which can be absorbed by the air and circulated around the continent by the wind. Additionally, the photosynthetic activity of marine algae and phytoplankton in the ocean contributes to the production of oxygen in the Antarctic region.

Even though not much grows on the Antarctic continent, it is extremely rich in oxygen.
