An ecosystem that does not depend on the sun is a deep-sea hydrothermal vent ecosystem. These ecosystems rely on chemosynthesis, where bacteria convert chemicals like hydrogen sulfide released from the Earth's crust into energy, rather than relying on sunlight for photosynthesis. Organisms such as tube worms, giant clams, and various crustaceans thrive in these environments, forming complex food webs independent of solar energy. This unique ecosystem demonstrates the adaptability of life in extreme conditions.
