The “Deep Sea Vent” theory was the idea that life originated deep below the surface of the ocean at deep sea hydrothermal vents. These deep sea vents were first discovered in 1979. Scientists first stated that life could not exist in these vents because the vents released gaseous substances from the center of the Earth at boiling hot temperatures. Although, after hydrothermal vents were discovered scientists found evidence of ecosystems developing in the depths of the ocean. Many organisms were found in these ecosystems such several types of fish, crabs, worms, and bacteria which had somehow found a way to survive. However, many scientists question whether life on Earth originated in these vents. The reason for this is because it is known
