== Behaviour == A Pompeii worm may survive exposure to hot water by dissipating heat through its head to keep its internal temperature within a suitable range for survival. The Pompeii worm pokes its head out of its tube home to feed and breathe in the cooler water. Its posterior end is exposed to extreme temperatures; the anterior end stays at a much more comfortable 22Β°C. [[File:Pompeii_worm.jpg|thumb|left]] Β
