Metal Print : Cutaway illustration of plant chloroplast
Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Cutaway illustration of plant chloroplast
Cutaway illustration of a plant chloroplast, the unit within the leaf which manufactures the plants food supply - starch - during photosynthesis. Contained within a double unit membrane are sheet- like lamellae (also called thylakoids) that support the the granal stacks, represented here as stacks of coins. The grana contain the photosynthetic pigments (chlorophylls) which are active in the conversion of the suns energy into chemical energy. The chloroplasts internal structure is adapted to maximise the amount of light reaching the chlorophyll pigments

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a cutaway illustration of a plant chloroplast, providing an intricate glimpse into the inner workings of these vital cellular structures. Within the leaf, chloroplasts serve as the powerhouses responsible for manufacturing starch, which serves as the primary food supply for plants through photosynthesis. Encased within a double unit membrane, this artwork reveals sheet-like lamellae or thylakoids that support granal stacks resembling neatly stacked coins. These grana house essential photosynthetic pigments known as chlorophylls. It is through their remarkable activity that sunlight is converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis. The internal structure of the chloroplast has evolved to optimize light absorption by maximizing exposure to chlorophyll pigments. This adaptation ensures efficient utilization of solar energy in sustaining plant life. This visually stunning art piece not only highlights the beauty and complexity found within cells but also emphasizes botanical science's profound understanding of plant structure and function. The detailed depiction invites us to marvel at nature's ingenuity while deepening our appreciation for the crucial role played by plastids like chloroplasts in supporting life on Earth. Science Photo Library brings together scientific expertise and artistic representation in this exceptional print, offering viewers an opportunity to explore and appreciate one of nature's most fascinating creations – the remarkable world inside a plant cell.
