How do organisms at deep sea vents survive without oxygen?

These organisms do not need oxygen. They are called anaerobes.


Why can't photosynthetic organisms grow in the deep water zone?

Photosynthetic organisms need light in order to survive. In very deep water there is no light.


Why is exploring the deep sea like exploring space?

You need special equipment to survive the extreme and dangerous conditions.


Can organisms thrive in scalding water?

It depends what temperature region is being considered. To take the human example, not only superficially would we be burnt, but the raised temperature over a sustained period of time will result in irreversible enzyme damage. This, in most organisms (i.e. a pathogen) is why they are unable to survive at the enzyme damage sustained results in complete malfunction. Potentially, there are organisms with can survive in very hot water as they have evolved that way. Species living on or near deep ocean vents are exposed to extreme conditions by survive due to millions of years of evolution, but to answer the question, most organisms in most taxa cannot survive.


What term is used to describe organisms that can survive in severe conditions?

The term used to describe organisms that can survive in severe conditions is extremophiles. Extremophiles are able to thrive in environments with extreme temperatures, pH levels, salinity, pressure, or other challenging conditions that are typically uninhabitable for most forms of life. Examples of extremophiles include bacteria living in hot springs, organisms in deep-sea hydrothermal vents, and lichens in arid deserts.


What are single celled organisms that live in deep sea vents or beneath ice belong to this group?

Thermophiles, which belong to the archaea kingdom.


What is unusual about organisms in the domain Archaea?

They can survive in areas of the earth where no other life forms can be found. For example, some of them can't survive in oxygen, and others are found deep inside the ocean vents.


What type of phyla would thrive in deep water?

Phyla such as Cnidaria (jellyfish, corals), Porifera (sponges), and Echinodermata (sea stars, sea urchins) are commonly found thriving in deep water environments due to their adaptability to low light and high pressure conditions. These organisms have evolved unique characteristics allowing them to survive in the deep sea, such as bioluminescence and specialized body designs for withstanding the extreme conditions.


Which kingdom of organisms includes organisms that can live in very high temperatures or deep in the ocean?

Well there are many kingdoms that include animals that can live in these conditions. (The kingdom classification system, by the way, is somewhat dated. I recommend you research modern taxonomy.) There are certain species of fish which survive year-round in the arctic, and other species of fish which live on the ocean floor, and still more which can survive near geothermal vents and in hotsprings, so the Animal Kingdom. However, Archaea, a domain of organisms distinct from eukarya and bacteria (basically, everything else) contains organisms similar to bacteria which thrive in basically every extreme and can be found almost anywhere. These organisms are know as extremophiles.

What describes archaebacteria?

Archaebacteria are simple organisms that thrive well in the heat of thermal vents deep in the ocean.


What makes deep ocean hydrothermal vents an extreme environment?

Deep ocean hydrothermal vents are an extreme environment due to high temperature and pressure, toxic chemicals like hydrogen sulfide, and absence of sunlight. Organisms living near these vents have adapted to thrive in these harsh conditions by relying on chemosynthesis rather than photosynthesis for energy.
