Illustration showing interior of a blood vessel
Illustration of the interior of a human blood vessel, showing the various cells that are suspended in blood plasma. The large saucer-like discs are red blood cells (erythrocytes) that function in the transport of oxygen from the lungs to the tissues (and waste carbon dioxide in the opposite direction). Mature red cells have no nucleus & cannot divide to form new cells; they are synthesized & released by the bone marrow. The small, less numerous cells are platelets, which are involved in the repair of minor damage to the endothelial cells that line the interior of all blood vessels

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate world within our blood vessels. The illustration showcases the remarkable diversity of cells suspended in blood plasma, revealing the inner workings of this vital transport system. At first glance, one cannot help but be drawn to the large saucer-like discs dominating the image – red blood cells, or erythrocytes. These incredible cells play a crucial role in delivering life-sustaining oxygen from our lungs to every tissue in our body. Interestingly, mature red cells lack a nucleus and are unable to divide for cell regeneration. Instead, they are continuously synthesized and released by the bone marrow. Amidst this bustling scene, we also notice smaller yet equally significant players: platelets. These less numerous cells take on an essential responsibility – repairing minor damage that occurs to the endothelial lining of all blood vessels. Their involvement in clotting ensures that any wounds or injuries can be swiftly addressed and healed. As we explore this artwork further, it becomes evident how intricately balanced and interconnected these cellular components are within our bloodstream. This visual representation serves as a reminder of both the fragility and resilience of our bodies' internal mechanisms. Science Photo Library's expertise shines through once again with this stunning depiction of human anatomy - offering us not only scientific insight but also an opportunity for awe at nature's complexity.
