Paralvinella hessleri, a yellow tube worm, lives in hydrothermal vents up to 608 °F (320 °C) and sequesters arsenic in its skin, converting it to orpiment (~1 % of its mass). https://getnews.me/yellow-deep-sea-worm-uses-arsenic-to-survive-acidic-vents/ #paralvinellahessleri #hydrothermalvents

-- and here's additional footage from the #IndianOcean.

"These show life around #HydrothermalVents — also known as black smokers — which are underwater hot springs thousands of meters deep, where organisms convert chemicals into organic carbon, fueling unique ecosystems without needing sunlight."

Tube worms are among the strangest of vent animals. Like science fiction creatures, they have no eyes, no mouth, and no gut. The red plume at the tip of their bodies is filled with blood.

Hydrothermal vents - cracks in the seafloor where superheated water gushes out - were only discovered in 1977. Far from lifeless, they host unique ecosystems powered by chemosynthesis, not sunlight.

A reminder of how much we still have to learn about the deep sea.

How does the alvinellid worm Paralvinella hessleri survive the toxic extremes of deep-sea #HydrothermalVents? A new study shows that it detoxifies its environment by forming orpiment minerals inside cells; this unique #biomineralization is a novel adaptation to toxic environments.🧪

Vent creatures have special enzymes that enable them to survive in the scalding water, toxic fluids, and extreme pressure at the ocean’s depths.

Still at #Goldschmidt2025 in Prague — and it’s been an incredibly inspiring & productive week for #geomicrobiology and #hydrothermalvents!
So many talks exploring how microbial processes at vents, in the subsurface & in plumes can impact global ocean biogeochemistry. 🌍🌋🧫
