Hydrothermal vents hydrothermal vents As part two of down to the oceans I am going to write about hydrothermal vents.   Hydrothermal vents are chimney like towers that were of course, made naturally. They lead deep into the earth’s surface. Heated chemicals boil up from these natural chimneys in very high temperatures. Strangely in the water that had turned cloudy blue, small bacteria-unseen to the naked eye, and also pale crabs, a type of sea worm and other types of animals lived.    life from hydrothermal vents (photos are from internet)
