English term or phrase: extremophiles
Boiling water temperatures found around hydrothermal vents on the sea floor were once believed to be incompatible with life. But recently scientists have discovered that they are perfectly suitable for a flourishing underwater community. Instead of the sun, these creatures take their energy from the heat, gasses and minerals spewing from the vents. They are known as **extremophiles**.

Explanation:
από το λατινικό extremus που σημαίνει το «ακραίο» και ελληνικό φιλία που σημαίνει «την αγάπη» είναι ένας αναπτυσσόμενος οργανισμός που μπορεί ακόμη και να απαιτήσει τις φυσικές ή γεοχημικές ακραίες συνθήκες που είναι καταστρεπτικές στην πλειοψηφία της ζωής στη γη.
