Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
False-colour SEM of dorsal surface of tongue
Tongue surface. False-colour scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the dorsal surface of the tongue. It is covered by two types of projections known as filiform and fungiform papillae. Filiform papillae, also known as conical papillae, are more numerous and have mechanical and tactile functions. They form a rough surface which helps the mastication process. Fungiform papillae are round and bigger than filiform papillae. On many fungiform papillae taste buds are found. Magnification: x25 at 6x7cm size. Magnification: x35 at 4x5 inch size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of the dorsal surface of a tongue, captured using a false-colour scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals two distinct types of projections known as filiform and fungiform papillae. The filiform papillae, also referred to as conical papillae, are abundant in number and serve mechanical and tactile functions. They create a rough surface that aids in the process of mastication or chewing. On the other hand, the larger round structures seen in this image are fungiform papillae. These specialized projections house taste buds on many of their surfaces. With a magnification level of x25 at 6x7cm size and x35 at 4x5 inch size, this microscopic photograph offers an up-close look into the fascinating world within our mouths. It provides valuable insights into the anatomy and composition of human tongues. This stunning visual representation not only highlights scientific subjects such as tongue anatomy but also showcases how technology can unveil hidden wonders within our bodies. This particular print is part of Science Photo Library's extensive collection featuring various microscopic photos capturing different aspects of life sciences.
