Home Decor from Science Photo Library
Acrosphaera radiolarian, SEM
Acrosphaera radiolarian. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the shell of a Acrosphaera sp. radiolarian. Radiolaria are single-celled protozoans that are found in marine plankton. This radiolarian has a silicate skeleton with pores through which pseudopodia (false feet) of protoplasm project. As it floats in ocean currents, the pseudopodia trap food particles on which the radiolarian feeds

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of an Acrosphaera radiolarian, a single-celled protozoan found in marine plankton. The image, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), reveals the delicate shell of this fascinating creature. Colored in vibrant hues, the circular silicate skeleton is adorned with pores through which pseudopodia – false feet made of protoplasm – extend. As this Acrosphaera radiolarian gracefully drifts along ocean currents, its pseudopodia play a crucial role in its survival. These remarkable extensions ensnare tiny food particles that serve as nourishment for this microscopic organism. The photograph offers us a glimpse into the mesmerizing world of marine fauna and highlights the complexity hidden within even the tiniest creatures. Its vivid colors and detailed structure invite us to marvel at nature's ingenuity and diversity. By capturing such extraordinary moments on film, Science Photo Library allows us to appreciate the wonders of biology and explore unseen realms that exist beyond our naked eye's reach. This particular image serves as a testament to both scientific discovery and artistic expression, merging cutting-edge technology with aesthetic appeal. Whether you are fascinated by zoology or simply captivated by natural beauty, this striking print will undoubtedly spark curiosity and ignite your imagination.
