Food chains in the ocean are long and complex

Hydrothermal Vents Form from volcanic activity

Deep Ocean technology has advanced throughout the years Deep Ocean technology has advanced throughout the years. Today, we mostly us ROVs (remotely operated vehicles)

Before 1977, we believed life could not exist on the bottom of the ocean Organisms that live here can endure extreme temperatures, pressures, and toxic chemicals

Hydrothermal Vent Life Instead of photosynthesis, organisms have evolved using chemosynthesis (instead of using sunlight for energy, they use acidic gases released from the hydrothermal vents)
