Greetings Card : Muscle fibres, SEM
Cards from Science Photo Library
Muscle fibres, SEM
Skeletal muscle fibres. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a freeze-fractured bundle of skeletal (or striated) muscle fibres. The fracture planes across the fibres, and the removal of the sheath of connective tissue, has revealed the banding pattern that arises from the regular arrangement of the microscopic fibres (myofibrils) found in a muscle fibre. Skeletal muscle is under voluntary control. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of skeletal muscle fibres, as captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The coloured SEM image reveals a freeze-fractured bundle of these fibres, providing a unique glimpse into their inner structure. The removal of the connective tissue sheath and the fracture planes across the fibres have unveiled an awe-inspiring banding pattern. This pattern arises from the regular arrangement of microscopic myofibrils within each muscle fibre. These myofibrils play a crucial role in muscle contraction and are responsible for generating force and movement. Skeletal muscles, such as those depicted in this print, are under voluntary control. They enable us to perform various physical activities like walking, running, or lifting objects. Their health and proper functioning are essential for our overall well-being. This extraordinary image not only highlights the complexity and organization present within our bodies but also serves as a reminder of how remarkable human anatomy truly is. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the aesthetic appeal and scientific significance behind skeletal muscle fibres. Displayed by Science Photo Library, this print represents just one example of their vast collection that explores biology at its finest – showcasing nature's wonders on both macroscopic and microscopic scales.
