Sponge spicule, SEM
Sponge spicule. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a spicule from a sponge (order Porifera). A sponge is a primitive aquatic organism that filters food from the water. It is a loose aggregation of cells supported by its spicules, needles of a calcium or silicon-rich mineral. The cells in a sponge are not differentiated, unlike those of higher animals. Magnification: x250 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a sponge spicule in all its intricate glory. Captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), the image reveals the mesmerizing details of this calcium or silicon-rich mineral needle that supports and gives structure to a sponge, an ancient aquatic organism belonging to the order Porifera. Sponges are fascinating creatures that dwell in water and rely on their unique filtering mechanism to extract nourishment from their surroundings. Unlike higher animals, sponges lack differentiated cells, making them distinctively primitive in nature. The vibrant colors added to this SEM image enhance our understanding of the structural complexity within these marine organisms. With a magnification of x250 at 6x7cm size, every minute feature is brought into focus, allowing us to appreciate the beauty hidden within even the tiniest elements of life. This photograph not only captures the essence of nature's diversity but also serves as a reminder of how much there still is left for us to explore and understand about our world. It invites us into the realm of zoology and wild life while providing valuable insights into marine ecosystems and invertebrate biology. Science Photo Library has once again delivered an awe-inspiring visual representation that sparks curiosity and appreciation for our natural world.
