Chloroplast, TEM C016 / 6297
Chloroplast. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of chloroplast from the moss Physcomitrella patens. Chloroplasts are the sites of photosynthesis, the process that synthesises carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water using sunlight. The pigment responsible for photosynthesis, chlorophyll, is found on stacks of parallel thylakoids (membranes, dark orange) called grana. The bright areas within the chloroplast are starch grains. Magnification: x1400 when printed at 10 centimetres tall

EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print captures the intricate beauty of a chloroplast, the powerhouse of photosynthesis in plants. Taken using a transmission electron microscope (TEM), this coloured micrograph showcases a chloroplast from the moss Physcomitrella patens. Chloroplasts play a vital role in converting carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates with the help of sunlight. The key pigment responsible for this process, chlorophyll, can be seen as stacks of parallel thylakoids, colored in dark orange and known as grana. These membranes are where photosynthesis takes place. Within the chloroplast, bright areas reveal starch grains that serve as energy storage for the plant. This image provides an up-close view of these microscopic structures at a magnification level of x1400 when printed at 10 centimeters tall. The photograph not only highlights the biological intricacies but also emphasizes nature's remarkable ability to harness light energy for sustenance. It offers insights into plant structure and biology while showcasing the unique features found within mosses like Physcomitrella patens. Captured by Dr Jeremy Burgess from Science Photo Library, this stunning print is perfect for anyone interested in botany, flora, or simply fascinated by the wonders hidden within our natural world.
