The bacteria that produce food from chemicals around hydrothermal vents are called chemoautotrophs. They use chemosynthesis to convert inorganic compounds, like hydrogen sulfide, into food without relying on sunlight. These bacteria form the foundation of deep-sea ecosystems, supporting various life forms in extreme conditions.
