Fine Art Print : Leaf veins of ivy
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Leaf veins of ivy
Macrophotograph of a leaf skeleton of the ivy plant, Hedera helix. showing the branching pattern & decreasing size of the veins (vascular tissue). The vascular tissue comprises the xylem, supplying water & minerals from the roots to the leaves & the phloem, which conducts the sugar manufactured in the leaves during photosynthesis to the rest of the plant. The veins are preserved due to the presence of lignin, a polymer resistant to decay, in the xylem. Mag: X2 (at 35mm size)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of the leaf veins of an ivy plant, Hedera helix. Through a macrophotograph of a leaf skeleton, we are able to observe the mesmerizing branching pattern and decreasing size of the veins, which make up the vital vascular tissue. The vascular tissue plays a crucial role in sustaining the life of plants. It consists of two main components: xylem and phloem. The xylem is responsible for supplying water and essential minerals from the roots to every part of the plant, including its leaves. On the other hand, phloem acts as a conduit for transporting sugars produced during photosynthesis in the leaves to nourish other parts of the plant. What makes this image even more fascinating is how these delicate veins have been preserved over time due to lignin's presence in the xylem. Lignin is a durable polymer that resists decay and provides structural support to plants. With its magnification at X2 (at 35mm size), this photograph allows us to appreciate nature's remarkable intricacies on a whole new level. It serves as a reminder that even within seemingly ordinary elements like leaves, there exists extraordinary complexity worth exploring. Captured by Science Photo Library, this botanical masterpiece invites us into an enchanting world where science meets artistry – showcasing not only our planet's natural wonders but also inspiring curiosity about our environment and all living organisms that call it home.
