Cell organelles, TEM
Cell organelles. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of several organelles in an animal cell. At centre, the nucleus (dark purple, round) contains the cells genetic material (DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid). Surrounding the nucleus are strands of endoplasmic reticulum (ER, pink), a membrane bound organelle that is the site of lipid synthesis and the production of membrane-bound proteins. Also present are mitochondria (green), which produce the cells energy

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of cell organelles, as captured by a transmission electron microscope (TEM). In this false-colored image, we are granted a glimpse into the inner workings of an animal cell. At the heart of it all lies the nucleus, depicted in a deep purple hue. This vital organelle houses the DNA, which carries the genetic blueprint for life itself. Radiating around the nucleus are delicate strands of endoplasmic reticulum (ER), painted in a soft pink shade. The ER is responsible for synthesizing lipids and producing membrane-bound proteins that play crucial roles in cellular functions. Amidst this bustling scene, vibrant green structures catch our attention - these are mitochondria. Known as powerhouses of cells, they generate energy to fuel various biological processes. The amalgamation of colors within this image not only adds aesthetic appeal but also highlights distinct features and functions within each organelle. From its scientific significance to its artistic allure, this photograph serves as a testament to both biology's complexity and beauty. Captured by Science Photo Library using advanced imaging techniques, this print offers an opportunity to marvel at nature's intricacy on a microscopic scale. Whether you're passionate about cell biology or simply appreciate stunning visuals, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and spark curiosity about life's building blocks.
