What conditions are necessary for hydrothermal features to develop?

Expert Solution
Introduction

                Hydrothermal features are geological features that produce extremely hot water, heated by hot spots in the earth mantel by means of cracks beneath the water. These features are home to heat-loving life(bacteria) called thermophiles. These bacterias are important because the decoding of their DNA can be used for many commercial and biotechnological applications.
