RE: A trio of smokers - where extremeophiles live

Great post. I love how fascinating and beautiful life on this planet is.

Symbiotic bacteria that feed on the sulfur which in turn feeds the worms. Wow, that's amazing.

I always thought that cells usually feed on sunlight (photosynthesis by chloroplasts) or glucose (animal cells by mitochondria) but it turns out that bacteria can also feed on sulfur.

Great post =)
