thermrooted
Thermrooted refers to a hypothetical phenomenon or biological adaptation where an organism has developed a deep and intrinsic connection or dependence on thermal energy sources for its survival or fundamental processes. This concept often appears in speculative fiction, particularly in discussions of astrobiology or the potential for life in extreme environments. In such contexts, a thermrooted organism might have evolved to thrive in areas with high geothermal activity, near volcanic vents, or even within the internal heat of a planet.
The adaptation could manifest in various ways. For instance, a thermrooted organism might possess specialized cellular
