Cell division, SEM
Cell division. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of two animal cells during cytokinesis (cell division). Cytokinesis occurs after nuclear division (mitosis), which produces two daughter nuclei. The two daughter cells are still connected by a midbody, a transient structure formed from microtubules

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate process of cell division in stunning detail. In this false-colored scanning electron micrograph (SEM), two animal cells are seen undergoing cytokinesis, the final stage of cell division. The mesmerizing image showcases the remarkable complexity and beauty inherent in biological processes. During cytokinesis, which follows nuclear division or mitosis, two daughter nuclei are formed. However, what makes this image truly fascinating is the presence of a midbody connecting the two daughter cells. This transient structure is composed of microtubules and serves as a bridge between them. The vibrant colors used to enhance this SEM photograph add an artistic touch to an otherwise scientific subject matter. It highlights the significance of studying cellular biology and cytology by making it visually appealing and accessible to all viewers. This print not only provides a glimpse into the microscopic world but also reminds us of our own existence as complex organisms made up of countless cells dividing and replicating constantly throughout our lives. It serves as a reminder that life itself is built upon these fundamental processes. Whether you have a passion for biology or simply appreciate the wonders of nature, this image will surely captivate your imagination and spark curiosity about the hidden realms within us all.
