What are organisms that live in hydrothermal vent?
There are some organisms that make there own food and that don't need vitamins from the sun.
Producers in a hydrothermal vent community are?
There are none. No sunlight penetrates that deep, so there is no sunlight for photosynthesis. Instead, bacteria use chemosynthesis. They take the chemicals in the water shooting out of the vents, and make it into food.
Where do organisms that live near hydrothermal vents get energy?
Hydrothermal vents are commonly found near volcanically active places, areas where tectonic plates are moving apart, ocean basins, and hotspots. Vent organisms depend on chemosynthetic bacteria for food. The water from the hydrothermal vent is rich in dissolved minerals and supports a large population of chemoautotrophic bacteria.
What zone does the Hydrothermal Vent Crab live in?
The Hydrothermal Vent Crab lives in the Sunlight Zone.
Black and white smokers are submerged by what type of volcanoes?
A chimney like vent on the ocean floor. It is a hydrothermal vent.
How is energy transsferred in a thermal vent community?
Some archaebacteria, such as thermophiles, live by hydrothermal vents. They are chemoautotrophs, which means that they produce their own food using energy from the chemicals in the vents instead of using energy from the sun. The energy starts in the vent, then goes to the archaebacteria, then to the organisms that eat those archaebacteria, and so on.
