Greetings Card : Deer antler, SEM
Cards from Science Photo Library
Deer antler, SEM
Deer antler. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a transverse section through cortical (compact) bone from the antler of a deer. The larger spaces seen here are Haversian canals, which contain blood and lymph vessels and nerves. The smaller spaces, known as lacunae, house the osteocytes, the bone-forming cells. Antlers consist entirely of bone and are shed every year. Magnification: x200 when printed at 10 centimetres across

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a deer antler, captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals a transverse section of the antler's cortical bone, providing an up-close look at its remarkable structure. The larger spaces visible in this vibrant SEM are known as Haversian canals. These canals serve as vital passageways for blood vessels, lymph vessels, and nerves within the antler. Meanwhile, the smaller spaces called lacunae house osteocytes - specialized cells responsible for forming new bone tissue. Antlers hold great significance in nature as they are entirely composed of bone and undergo an annual shedding process. This photograph offers us a glimpse into their extraordinary composition and highlights the marvels of biological adaptation. Printed at 10 centimeters across with a magnification of x200, this image from Science Photo Library immerses viewers in the fascinating world of zoology and biology. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly ordinary elements like deer antlers possess incredible complexity when examined closely. With its rich colors and detailed textures, this print is perfect for those who appreciate both artistry and scientific exploration. Whether displayed in homes or educational settings, it invites contemplation on the wonders found within nature's creations.
