Blood cells, SEM C016 / 8026
Blood cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a lymphocyte white blood cell (centre) and red blood cells (erythrocytes, circular). Lymphocytes are involved in the immune systems defence mechanisms, lymph system, and antibody production. The main function of red blood cells is to distribute oxygen to body tissues and to carry waste carbon dioxide back to the lungs. Magnification: x3003, when printed 10 centimetres high

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Blood Cells" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate world of our body's defense mechanisms. Through the lens of a scanning electron microscope (SEM), we are presented with a colored scanning electron micrograph showcasing various blood cells. At the center of this image stands a lymphocyte white blood cell, surrounded by its circular companions - red blood cells or erythrocytes. Lymphocytes play an integral role in our immune system's defense mechanisms, aiding in antibody production and safeguarding our bodies against harmful invaders. On the other hand, red blood cells perform the vital task of distributing oxygen to all corners of our body tissues while simultaneously carrying waste carbon dioxide back to our lungs for elimination. With a magnification level of x3003 when printed at 10 centimeters high, this photograph allows us to appreciate the remarkable complexity and beauty that lies within us. Each cell represents an essential component contributing to our overall health and well-being. As we delve deeper into biology and cytology through this image, it serves as a reminder of how interconnected and interdependent every aspect of our anatomy truly is. It highlights both the normality and multiplicity found within these microscopic structures that silently work together to keep us healthy. Photographed by Stefan Diller from Science Photo Library, this print encapsulates not only scientific excellence but also sparks curiosity about the wonders hidden within ourselves.
