Mouse Mat : C. elegans worm
Home Decor from Science Photo Library
C. elegans worm
Caenorhabditis elegans nematode worm, light micrograph. This soil-dwelling hermaphrodite nematode worm is one of the most studied animals in biological and genetic research. A tendency to reproduce by self-fertilization (resulting in identical offspring), along with the short time taken to reach maturity, make this tiny worm an ideal subject. Scientists have drawn up a wiring diagram of its nervous system, studied the development of each of its 959 component cells and produced a full map of its genes. Magnification: x180 when printed 10cm high

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a C. elegans worm, also known as Caenorhabditis elegans nematode worm. As a soil-dwelling hermaphrodite nematode, this tiny creature has become one of the most extensively studied animals in biological and genetic research. Its unique ability to reproduce through self-fertilization, resulting in identical offspring, combined with its remarkably short maturation period, make it an ideal subject for scientific exploration. Scientists have delved deep into understanding this remarkable organism by meticulously mapping its nervous system's wiring diagram and studying the development of each of its 959 component cells. Furthermore, they have successfully deciphered a comprehensive map of its genes through extensive genomic research. The magnified image reveals the mesmerizing details that lie within this seemingly simple roundworm. Its vibrant orange hue adds to the allure while highlighting nature's diversity even at microscopic levels. This photograph not only captures the essence of wild life but also symbolizes groundbreaking discoveries in zoology and genetics. It serves as a testament to humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and our fascination with unraveling the mysteries hidden within every corner of our natural world.
