Why do tubeworms and hundreds of other species thrive near hydrothermal vents? very hot water released by the vents keeps organisms warm. supercooled water released by the vents kills off all disease. chemicals from the vents kill off bacteria, making the entire food supply available for other organisms. chemicals from the vents feed bacteria which, in turn, produce sugar and other food for organisms?

The tube worms and hundreds of other species thrive near hydro-thermal vents because the chemicals from the vents feed bacteria which, in turn, produce sugar and other food for organisms. Hydro-thermal vents are mostly located near volcano prone areas, places where tectonic plates separate and hotspots. These thermal vents help the circulation in oceans.
