What else can I help you with?
Water released from deep-sea vents has been heated by?
hot rocks deep in the crust.
What is a sentence for the word archaea?
Archaea are ancient microorganisms that thrive in extreme environments such as hot springs and deep-sea vents.
What is the temperatures at deep sea vents?
Some deep sea vents can be hotter than 300 degrees C.
Why might scientists believe that life evolved as bacteria around deep sea vents?
Perfect environment: dark, wet, warm to hot.
Thermophile in a sentence?
A thermophile is a type of extremophile microorganism that thrives in high temperature environments, such as hot springs or deep-sea hydrothermal vents.
Why were scientists surprised to find life around hydrothermal vents?
hot springs on the sea floor that pump out superheated water from inside earth.
What is the difference between geysers and deep-sea vents that form chimneys?
Geysers are hot springs that intermittently erupt boiling water and steam from underground due to pressure build-up, often in volcanic areas. Deep-sea vents, also known as hydrothermal vents, are fissures on the ocean floor that release superheated water enriched with minerals. Chimneys at deep-sea vents are structures formed by minerals precipitating out of the vent fluids, whereas geysers do not typically form chimneys.
How do the vents work on a hot air balloon?
the vents work because of the heat which can make the hot air balloon go up
How do vents work on a hot air balloon?
the vents work because of the heat which can make the hot air balloon go up
What is the difference between geysers and deep-sea vents?
Both are geysers, in effect releasing mineral rich heated water from an opening in the crust, but of course, geysers as we know them are land based, and hydrothermal vents are sea based. Hydrothermal vents also build 'chimneys' from the minerals pushed up by the superheated water, and are home to a unique array of sea life.
Where do you expect to find thermophiles in nature?
Thermophiles are expected to be found in extreme environments with high temperatures, such as hot springs, deep-sea hydrothermal vents, and volcanic areas.
What kinds of different plants are there in the sea?
in the sea there are seaweed, coral, and hydrothermal vents.
