Hydrothermal+Vent+Information

=__ Hydrothermal Vents __= Down at the bottom of the ocean water reaches tempratures of 300 degrees Farenheit, even though there is no sunlight. This is because cold air sinks down cracks in the ocean floor, hits the hot rocks beneath, and shoots back out as hot air. Hydrothermal vents are usually in deep parts of the ocean. However, despite the heat and deepness many organisms live there in communities. Some ani mals that live there are tube worms, white clams, and siphonophorores. These animals are able to change the deadly chemicals coming out of the vents into food.

I think that hydrorthermal vents are very interesting.Usually that deep down eat everything in sight. These animals live in communities. I wonder what other animals live down there, and what adaptations they have.
