How do the many organisms live iv complete darkness at the bottom of the ocean near hydrothermal vents and some don't have mouths So how do their cells get food that they need?

as to the darkness, most, if not all of the organisms there are blind or have a bioluminescent light. As to the organisms that don't have mouths, they most likely get their energy from chemosynthetic bacteria that live inside or on their body.

Why were scientist surprised to discover the variety of organisms living around hydrothermal events?
hydrothermal vents are on the bottom of the ocean where there is not much sunlight and is so deep, that they thought it would be impossible for any organisms to survive. apparently, hydrothermal vents provided heat and produced chemicals which bacteria feed on. And other animals feed on bacteria.
Have been found in waters of hydrothermal vents?
hydrothermal vents are found in the deep zone
Where are most hydrothermal vents found?
Hydrothermal vents are found along seafloor spreading centers on the bottom of the oceans.
In What zone are hydrothermal vents located-?
hydrothermal vents are found in the deep zone
Why are hydrothermal vents helpful to the deep sea ecology?
Hydrothermal vents allow underground heat sources to warm the ocean bottom which is necessary to support deep see ecology.
How do hydrothermal vents support living things?
Hydrothermal vents are openings in the seafloor out of which heated mineral-rich water flows. So plants at the bottom of the ocean can use the minerals from the hydrothermal vents to help them grow and photosynthesis..hope that helped:)
What must be true about the organisms at the bottom of the food chain?
the organisms in the bottom of the food chain are usually producers.
What animals live in the hydrothermal vent?
Chemosynthetic bacteria and archaea form the base of the food chain.Round a hydro thermal vent, the source of energy is chemical (from Hydrogen Sulfide) rather than light. Specialised singe celled organisms from the bacteria and archaea (called chemotrophs) use the chemical energy to grow and then various more normal animals eat the bacteria.
What organisms can be found at the bottom of the pond?
rocks
What organisms have a ventral nerve cord?
A ventral nerve cord can be found in on the bottom (or lay on the bottom) of the organisms, such as grasshoppers and earthworms. Hope this helps! - AJ
Where do pompeii worms live?
Pompeii Worms live on hydrothermal sea vents at the bottom of the ocean ranging from 6,500-10,000 ft. below sea level
