Framed Print : SEM of Paramecium
Framed Photos from Science Photo Library
SEM of Paramecium
Paramecium. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the single-celled protozoan, Paramecium caudatum. This ciliate animal has cilia on its cell membrane surface enabling it to swim with an upwards, spiralling motion. It is an elongated oval shape with the groove of its mouth seen at centre. Paramecium is found mainly in stagnant ponds, feeding on bacteria and plant particles. They breed by transverse cell division into two identical cells, while conjugation may occur when two paramecia fuse to facilitate mixing of genetic material. Magnification: x485 at 5x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a Paramecium, a single-celled protozoan. The image, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), reveals the vibrant colors and fascinating details of this ciliate animal. With its elongated oval shape and cilia covering its cell membrane surface, the Paramecium propels itself through water with an elegant upward spiraling motion. At the center of this microscopic marvel, we can observe the groove that serves as its mouth. This feature allows the Paramecium to feed on bacteria and plant particles found in stagnant ponds where it predominantly resides. Reproduction for these unicellular organisms occurs through transverse cell division, resulting in two identical cells. However, conjugation is also possible when two paramecia fuse together to facilitate genetic material mixing. Magnified at 485 times its actual size and printed on a 5x7cm medium, this SEM photograph provides us with an extraordinary glimpse into the hidden world of microorganisms. It reminds us of nature's remarkable diversity and complexity even at scales invisible to our naked eyes. This mesmerizing image from Science Photo Library captures not only scientific interest but also sparks curiosity about our natural surroundings. Its vivid portrayal invites contemplation about life's intricacies while highlighting the wonders that exist within every corner of our planet's ecosystems.
