Cellular clock

Cellular clock. Conceptual artwork of a clock and the internal structures (organelles) of an animal cell. This could represent the rate of metabolic cell reactions, the natural ageing and death of a cell, or measuring evolutionary timescales using mitochondrial DNA. The structures seen include the cell nucleus (purple sphere with nuclear pores for genetic information transfer), the ER (endoplasmic reticulum, purple folds), ribosomes (red chains where protein synthesis takes place), the Golgi complex (yellow-green folds, bottom, where protein storage and transport takes place) and several mitochondria (green, the sites of energy synthesis within the cell)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Cellular Clock" showcases a mesmerizing blend of art and biology. The artwork depicts the intricate internal structures, known as organelles, within an animal cell against the backdrop of a clock. It symbolizes various concepts such as the rate of metabolic cell reactions, natural aging and death of cells, and even measuring evolutionary timescales using mitochondrial DNA. The image highlights key components like the cell nucleus, represented by a purple sphere with nuclear pores for genetic information transfer. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is depicted through its purple folds while red chains signify ribosomes where protein synthesis occurs. The Golgi complex appears as yellow-green folds at the bottom responsible for protein storage and transport. Several green mitochondria are showcased in this artwork since they play a vital role in energy synthesis within cells. Each structure beautifully intertwines to create a visual representation of cellular functions and their timing. This thought-provoking piece not only appeals to biologists but also sparks curiosity among those interested in evolution and chronology. It offers viewers an opportunity to delve into the microscopic world that governs life's fundamental processes. Science Photo Library has once again captured both scientific accuracy and artistic brilliance through this stunning illustration that invites contemplation on the intricacies of cellular life.
