Yes, soils and plants do exist in Antarctica, albeit in limited forms due to the harsh climate and extreme conditions. The continent is home to mosses, lichens, and some vascular plants, primarily in the coastal regions where temperatures are milder. Soils in Antarctica are primarily composed of mineral material and organic matter from these plants, but they are often thin and poorly developed due to the cold and dry environment. Overall, life in Antarctica is sparse but resilient.
