LM of assorted Foraminifera shells
Foraminiferan shells. Light micrograph of assorted species of shells belonging to the order Foramini- fera. Single-celled protozoans inhabit these shells which are composed of several chambers and usually penetrated by pores through which the cellular contents is extruded. The organisms live in the sea or salt-water lakes. Foraminiferan shells form an important component of chalk and of many deep sea oozes. In previous geological ages Foraminifera occurred in such enormous numbers that their shells, largely of calcium carbonate, have formed immense fossil deposits seen today as limestone.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of assorted Foraminifera shells, captured under a light microscope. These shells belong to the order Foraminifera, which are single-celled protozoans that inhabit these remarkable structures. Composed of multiple chambers and often penetrated by pores, these shells serve as homes for these tiny organisms. Foraminiferan shells play a vital role in marine ecosystems, as they are predominantly found in the sea or salt-water lakes. Moreover, they form a significant component of chalk and various deep-sea oozes. In fact, their abundance in previous geological ages was so immense that their calcium carbonate-based shells have formed vast fossil deposits we now observe as limestone. The magnified image reveals stunning details at 90 times its original size on a 6x6cm scale. Each shell exhibits unique characteristics and patterns, showcasing the diversity within this group of zooplanktonic creatures. This photograph not only highlights the wonders of nature but also serves as an invaluable resource for scientific research in fields such as zoology and invertebrate biology. Captured by Science Photo Library, this print is a testament to the incredible world hidden beneath our oceans' surfaces. It invites us to appreciate the delicate intricacies present even within microscopic life forms while reminding us of their historical significance and ecological importance today.
