Answer:
D. hot, but much cooler than at a hydrothermal vent
Explanation:
A cold seep is an area in the ocean floor where hydrogen sulfide, methane and other hydrocarbon rich fluids seep through thus forming a brine pool.
A cold seep is also called a cold vent and its temperature is not necessary lower than that of the surrounding water, but it is lower than that of a hydrothermal vent which is about 60 °C.
Fish nets can be very detrimental towards the ecosystem, as they can trap unintended wildlife, which can horribly tilt the ecosystem one way or another.
Answer:
Cyanobacteria
Explanation:
Cyanobacteria were the first photosynthetic autotrophs that used water molecules as the source of electrons. Cyanobacteria were the first autotrophs that performed oxygenic photosynthesis and carried out the splitting of water.
The process of splitting water released oxygen as a gas (O2) which was released in the atmosphere of the earth as a by-product. This led to the accumulation of oxygen in the atmosphere. Some cyanobacteria can fix nitrogen and have specialized cells called heterocyst which serve as the site for nitrogen fixation.
