Jigsaw Puzzle : Bronchial cilia, SEM
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Bronchial cilia, SEM
Bronchial cilia. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a normal human bronchial epithelium, the mucus membrane lining the major airways of the lung. Clumps of hair-like cilia (purple/blue) protrude from the tops of specialised epithelial cells (brown/green). Rhythmic movements of the cilia serve to move bacteria and other particles away from the gas- exchanging parts of the lung and towards the throat, where they can be expelled. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of bronchial cilia, the hair-like structures that line our major airways. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a close-up view of a normal human bronchial epithelium, which forms the mucus membrane in our lungs. The image reveals clumps of vibrant purple and blue cilia protruding from specialized brown and green epithelial cells. These cilia possess an extraordinary ability to rhythmically move, serving as nature's cleaning crew within our respiratory system. Their purpose is to sweep bacteria and other particles away from the delicate gas-exchanging regions of the lung towards the throat for expulsion. While magnification details remain unknown, it is clear that this photograph offers a unique perspective on one aspect of healthy lung anatomy. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate both the complexity and elegance of these microscopic structures. By capturing such remarkable detail, Science Photo Library provides us with an opportunity to marvel at the wonders hidden within our own bodies. This image serves as a reminder of how intricately designed our respiratory system is, showcasing its efficient defense mechanisms against potential threats.
