Extremophiles

There are creatures in the sea called Extremophiles they live along hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor.  This organism uses chemosynthesis through small bacteria that lives inside the tube worm in a symbiotic relationship.  The hydrothermic vents on the ocean floor release hydrogen sulfide and extremely hot water.  The bacteria that lives inside the tubeworm processes the Hydrogen sulfide and makes it useable for the tube worm.


Here is a picture of a tube worm.
