Jigsaw Puzzle : Pine wood structure, light micrograph
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Pine wood structure, light micrograph
Pine wood structure. Polarised light micrograph of a longitudinal radial section through the stem wood (xylem) of the deal pine tree (Pinus mitis). The xylem is made up of tracheids (blue), long narrow cells with a single row of round bordered pits (red, yellow, and light blue) that allow water to pass through laterally. The large tracheids (blue area) on the left are the spring wood and the smaller tracheids (yelow-green) on the right are the autumn wood. Magnification: x103 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a pine wood structure, captured through a polarised light micrograph. The image reveals a longitudinal radial section of the stem wood (xylem) from the majestic deal pine tree (Pinus mitis). The xylem, composed of tracheids depicted in shades of blue, is comprised of long and slender cells with round bordered pits colored in red, yellow, and light blue. These pits serve as channels that allow water to flow laterally within the tree's vascular system. On the left side of the image, we observe larger tracheids representing spring wood, while on the right side smaller tracheids symbolize autumn wood. With a magnification level of x103 when printed at 10 centimeters wide, this photograph offers an up-close exploration into nature's cellular wonders. It provides valuable insights into botany and plant biology by showcasing various components such as supportive structures and cuticles. Through this visual masterpiece created using a light microscope under polarised light conditions, Science Photo Library beautifully captures not only the scientific aspects but also highlights the aesthetic appeal found within botanical specimens. This remarkable print serves as a testament to both nature's complexity and its ability to inspire awe-inspiring artistry.
