In 1993, a geochemist named Michael Russell came up with the idea that life may have started in these hydrothermal vents. Later on in 2003, he changed his theory saying that life originated from the energy created when the vent water mixed with acidic seawater. Michael Russell's theory sparked a whole new argument for evolutionists to stand behind. https://www.chemistryworld.com/features/hydrothermal-vents-and-the-origins-of-life/3007088.article Of course, this is not the only theory about hydrothermal vents and the origin of life. There is another theory that [[archaebacteria]] lived and reproduced in hydrothermal vents from the very start. Many scientists believe that archae were the ancestors of eukaryotic organisms. According to scientists, the heat and pressure of these sea vents can change the forms of archae and DNA of all living organisms can be tracked all the way back to the sea vents. Some scientists also believe that the DNA of these archaens are closers to eukaryotic organisms rather than bacteria. Apparently, with time passing, these organisms with a single cell evolved into organisms with colonial cells. https://www.thoughtco.com/early-life-theory-of-hydrothermal-vents-1224529 | In 1993, a geochemist named Michael Russell came up with the idea that life may have started in these hydrothermal vents.

Like geysers and hotsprings, hydrothermal vents can be found where volcanic activity occurs. Like the first hydrothermal vent ever discovered, many sea vents are located in mid-ocean ridges. These areas are rich in tectonic activity as tectonic plates constantly move together and separate, allowing the build up of magma beneath the seabed. https://www.whoi.edu/main/topic/hydrothermal-vents | |||
