Fine Art Print : Watercolour artwork of the protozoan, Euglena sp
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Watercolour artwork of the protozoan, Euglena sp
Euglena sp. Watercolour artwork of the pond- dwelling Euglena sp. a protozoan. This single- celled organism has a tail-like flagellum for locomotion (at centre left), attached within the reservoir (light green oval, at centre left). A contractile vacuole (blue) maintains the water balance by expelling fluid from the reservoir. Below is a stigma, or eye spot (red), for locating light for photosynthesis. The cytoplasm is green due to the large number of photosynthetic chloroplasts that form starch using sunlight. This food is stored in paramylum granules (purple spheres). The large nucleus (purple, at upper right) contains genetic material

EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour artwork showcases the intricate beauty of the Euglena sp. , a fascinating pond-dwelling protozoan. The single-celled organism is depicted with precision, highlighting its unique features and remarkable adaptations. At the center left, we can observe a tail-like flagellum that enables the Euglena sp. to move gracefully through its aquatic habitat. The reservoir, portrayed as a light green oval, houses an essential contractile vacuole represented in blue. This vacuole plays a crucial role in maintaining water balance by expelling excess fluid from the reservoir. Just below it lies a striking red stigma or eye spot, which aids in locating light for photosynthesis - an extraordinary ability possessed by this tiny creature. The vibrant green cytoplasm owes its color to numerous photosynthetic chloroplasts that convert sunlight into energy-rich starches. These valuable food reserves are stored within purple paramylum granules depicted as spheres throughout the artwork. Intriguingly, at the upper right corner rests a large purple nucleus containing genetic material vital for sustaining life processes within this microscopic wonder of nature. This stunning watercolour print not only celebrates the beauty of wildlife but also offers us insight into the complex anatomy and physiology of these mesmerizing invertebrates. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an educational tool bridging art and science seamlessly together.
