Single-celled embryo, artwork
Single-celled embryo. Image 1 of 4. Computer model representing a single cell. The development of an embryo is called embryogenesis. In organisms that reproduce sexually, once a sperm fertilizes an egg cell, the result is a cell that has all the DNA of the two parents (zygote). The zygote begins to divide by mitosis producing 2, 4, 6, 8 cells and so on to form a multicellular organism. The result of this process is an embryo. For a sequence representing mitosis and embryo development see images P680/0943-P680/0946

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork captures the essence of life's beginnings - a single-celled embryo. In this computer-generated model, we witness the intricate process of embryogenesis, where a zygote forms after the fusion of an egg cell and sperm. The zygote then undergoes mitosis, dividing into multiple cells to create a multicellular organism. The image showcases the remarkable journey from conception to embryo development with precision and artistry. It serves as a visual representation of biology's most fundamental processes, highlighting the origin and growth of life itself. Through its vibrant colors and meticulous details, this artwork invites us to contemplate the wonders of reproduction and human existence. It reminds us that every complex organism begins as a single cell brimming with potential. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of our own biological makeup and how it connects us to all living beings on Earth. It is a testament to the beauty found within our bodies' cellular structures and their ability to shape our lives. This stunning piece stands at the intersection between science and art, merging scientific knowledge with creative expression. Its portrayal sparks curiosity about developmental biology, embryology, cytology - fields that unravel nature's secrets hidden within each tiny cell. Science Photo Library has once again captured an awe-inspiring moment in time through their lens or brushstroke; reminding us that even in simplicity lies complexity worth exploring.
