Cosmos flower pistil, SEM
Cosmos flower pollination. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of pollen (red balls) on part of the pistil (female reproductive structure) of a cosmos (Cosmos sp.) flower. Pollen grains are produced by the anthers (male reproductive parts, not seen). Pollen grains that land on a pistil may then transfer a male reproductive cell (male gamete) to the ovary (not seen) where it can fertilise a female gamete, producing the seed for a new plant. Magnification unknown

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of a cosmos flower pistil. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a close-up view of the fascinating process of cosmos flower pollination. The image reveals vibrant red pollen grains delicately scattered on a section of the pistil, which is the female reproductive structure of the flower. While we cannot see them in this particular image, these pollen grains originate from anthers, which are the male reproductive parts of the cosmos flower. Once these tiny particles land on a pistil, they have the potential to transfer a male gamete to an unseen ovary. This crucial step allows for fertilization to occur and ultimately leads to seed production for future plant growth. The magnification level used in capturing this mesmerizing scene remains unknown but serves as a reminder that even within nature's smallest details lies great significance. Through its vivid colors and intricate structures, this SEM image not only highlights the marvels found within botanical realms but also emphasizes how sexual reproduction plays an essential role in sustaining plant life. With its emphasis on structure, male and female interactions, and natural processes like pollination and reproduction, this stunning print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both science and art simultaneously.
