Pediastrum alga, SEM
Pediastrum alga. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a close-up of the remains of a Pediastrum sp. alga. This freshwater green alga forms a disc-like colony of cells. The colony comprises a central cell surrounded by concentric rings of cells. The outermost cells each have two lobes projecting outwards, giving the colony a " spiky" appearance. Some of the cells have become detached from this specimen

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Pediastrum alga, a freshwater green alga that forms a unique disc-like colony of cells. The close-up view reveals the remains of this fascinating organism in stunning detail. The colony is composed of concentric rings of cells surrounding a central cell, resembling an enchanting natural work of art. What sets this alga apart is its outermost cells, each adorned with two lobes projecting outwards, giving the entire colony a strikingly "spiky" appearance. In this particular specimen captured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), some cells have become detached from the main structure, adding to the visual intrigue and providing insight into the life cycle and dynamics of these algae. As we delve into nature's wonders through botany and explore aquatic ecosystems, it becomes evident how diverse and captivating plant life can be. This image serves as a reminder that even microscopic organisms possess incredible complexity and beauty. Displayed horizontally with cut-out precision against a contrasting background, this colored SEM photograph allows us to appreciate every minute detail while highlighting the vibrant shades present within these colonies. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an awe-inspiring glimpse into our natural world - showcasing both its delicate structures and extraordinary diversity without mentioning any commercial use or affiliation with any specific company.
