LM of human embryo at four-cell stage
Light micrograph (Kohler illumination) of a primitive human embryo, composed of four cells following the initial mitotic divisions which ultimately transform a single cell organism into one composed of millions of cells. Subsequent division of these cells (called blastomeres) results in the formation of a hollow ball of cells (the blastocyst) with a localised thickening (the inner cell mass) that will develop into the actual embryo. Development of the blastocyst occurs before it implants into the uterine wall. The site of implantation determines the subsequent position of the placenta

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of a human embryo at its four-cell stage. Through the lens of a light micrograph, we are granted a glimpse into the intricate process that transforms a single cell organism into a magnificent structure composed of millions of cells. The image showcases the initial mitotic divisions, where each cell divides to form four distinct blastomeres. These tiny building blocks hold immense potential as they pave the way for further development. As these blastomeres continue to divide and multiply, they give rise to a hollow ball-like structure known as the blastocyst. Within this spherical arrangement, an inner cell mass can be observed as a localized thickening. This cluster of cells holds great significance as it will eventually develop into the actual embryo itself. However, before implantation occurs in the uterine wall, this delicate blastocyst undergoes crucial stages of growth and differentiation. It is fascinating to contemplate how such complex life begins from such humble beginnings. The precise location where implantation takes place plays an essential role in determining not only future development but also dictates the subsequent position and function of one vital organ -the placenta. Through this remarkable photograph by Science Photo Library, we are reminded once again of nature's extraordinary ability to orchestrate new life with meticulous precision and awe-inspiring complexity.
