Jigsaw Puzzle : Cerebral cortex nerve cells
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Cerebral cortex nerve cells
Cerebral cortex nerve cells. Confocal light micrograph of neurons (nerve cells, red) and glial cells (support cells, gold) from the cerebral cortex. Cell nuclei, which contain each cells genetic information, are blue. Neurons are responsible for passing information around the central nervous system (CNS) and from the CNS to the rest of the body. Glial cells provide structural support and protection for neurons and also supply them with nutrients and oxygen. The cerebral cortex is responsible for higher functions such as memory, thought and intellect

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of cerebral cortex nerve cells. In this confocal light micrograph, we are presented with a mesmerizing display of red neurons and golden glial cells against a backdrop of blue cell nuclei. Nerve cells, or neurons, play a vital role in transmitting information within the central nervous system (CNS) and between the CNS and the rest of our body. They form an intricate network that allows us to think, remember, and process complex thoughts. The glial cells depicted here serve as support systems for these neurons, providing structural stability and protection while also nourishing them with essential nutrients and oxygen. The cerebral cortex is responsible for higher cognitive functions such as memory retention, thought processes, and intellectual capabilities. This image offers us a glimpse into the microscopic world that underlies these remarkable abilities. Through staining techniques used in biology research, this photograph captures the fluorescent glow emitted by specific molecules within these nerve cells. It provides valuable insights into their anatomical structures at a cellular level. As we marvel at this stunning visual representation of our brain's inner workings, it serves as a reminder of how intricately interconnected our biological systems are – each component playing its unique role in shaping who we are as individuals.
