False-colour SEM of hair cells in the inner ear
Inner ear. False-colour scanning electron micrograph of hair cells (yellow) which are part of the Organ of Corti in the inner ear. They are divided into outer hair cells (v-shaped) and inner hair cells (top left). Hair cells are immersed in a fluid called endolymph and react to the pressure of sound waves with an undulatory motion. This motion stimulates a nerve ending in each group of hair cells which carries a signal to various parts of the brain via the cochlear nerve. The two types of hair cells are divided by the pillar cells, seen here covered by microvilli (tiny spheres). Magnification: x1320 at 6x7cm size. x2205 at 4x5ins. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © PROF. P. MOTTA/DEPT. OF ANATOMY/UNIVERSITY LA SAPIENZA , ROME/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of hair cells in the inner ear, revealing a mesmerizing world hidden from our naked eye. In this false-colour scanning electron micrograph, the hair cells are depicted in vibrant yellow hues, forming part of the remarkable Organ of Corti. The Organ of Corti consists of two distinct types of hair cells: outer hair cells arranged in a v-shape and inner hair cells located towards the top left. Immersed within a fluid called endolymph, these delicate hair cells respond to sound waves by undulating with grace and precision. This motion triggers nerve endings connected to each group of hair cells, transmitting signals to different regions of the brain via the cochlear nerve. It is through this complex process that we perceive auditory sensations. The pillar cells act as dividers between these two types of hair cells and are covered by microvilli—tiny spheres that add another layer of intricacy to this microscopic landscape. With an impressive magnification level at x1320 for a 6x7cm size or x2205 for 4x5ins dimensions, this image offers us an extraordinary glimpse into one aspect of our auditory sense. Through its vivid portrayal and scientific significance, this photograph serves as a testament to both human anatomy and our ability to explore and understand it on such minute scales—a true marvel captured by Science Photo Library.
