This eye-opening revelation was revealed in a groundbreaking study in the journal Nature Geoscience.

“I think we need to revisit questions like: where could aerobic life (life that requires oxygen) have begun?” the study’s lead author Andrew Sweetman, professor of seafloor ecology at the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS) in Oban, UK, said in a statement.
