Greetings Card : Chloroplast structure, artwork
Cards from Science Photo Library
Chloroplast structure, artwork
Chloroplast structure. Artwork showing the internal structure of chloroplasts, the organelles in plant cells responsible for photosynthesis. The inner and outer lipid-bilayer membranes enclose the granum (stack of thykaloids, green layered objects), the plastidial DNA (white loops), ribosomes (yellow), and starch grains (blue-white). The ribosome at centre left is engaged in RNA translation and protein formation. It is the thykaloid stacks that are the site of photosynthesis, the capturing of energy from sunlight using the green pigment chlorophyll. This energy can be stored in the form of starch for later use

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate internal structure of chloroplasts, the vital organelles responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells. Against a clean white background, this print highlights the inner and outer lipid-bilayer membranes that enclose the granum, which appears as a stack of green layered objects known as thykaloids. The plastidial DNA is depicted as elegant white loops, while ribosomes are represented by vibrant yellow dots scattered throughout the image. Additionally, blue-white starch grains add another layer of visual interest to this stunning illustration. At the center left of the composition, an engaged ribosome captivates attention as it diligently carries out RNA translation and protein formation. However, it is within these thykaloid stacks where photosynthesis truly occurs – capturing energy from sunlight through chlorophyll pigments and converting it into usable forms such as starch for future use. This artwork not only celebrates nature's botanical wonders but also serves as an educational tool in biology classrooms or research facilities. It beautifully captures key elements such as genetic material (DNA), energy production processes, eukaryotic cell structures like membranes and organelles like chloroplasts. With its meticulous details and precise cutouts against a pure white backdrop, this print from Science Photo Library offers viewers a glimpse into one of life's most remarkable biochemical processes - photosynthesis - while showcasing artistry inspired by science itself.
