Human chromosome pair, SEM
Human chromosome. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a human chromosome as a pair of identical copies called chromatids. These form as part of chromosome replication during cell division. The chromatids of a pair are joined at the centromere, which divides a chromatid into two asymmetrical regions. Chromosomes are present in the nucleus of nearly every cell of the body. They consist of genetic material, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), in association with proteins. Most human cells contain 46 chromosomes, 23 inherited from the mother and 23 from the father.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a human chromosome pair, captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals a pair of identical copies known as chromatids, which form during the replication process in cell division. Joined together at the centromere, these chromatids exhibit two distinct regions with asymmetrical characteristics. Chromosomes are an essential component found within the nucleus of almost every cell in our body. Composed of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) intertwined with proteins, they carry genetic information that determines our unique traits and characteristics. In most cases, humans possess 46 chromosomes - 23 inherited from each parent. The vibrant colors used to enhance this SEM micrograph highlight the significance and complexity of human genetics. This mesmerizing visual representation serves as a reminder of how hereditary factors shape who we are as individuals. With its scientific precision and artistic allure, this print is not only a testament to biological marvels but also an invitation to explore the wonders hidden within ourselves. Whether you have a passion for biology or simply appreciate natural beauty at its finest, this image offers an intriguing glimpse into the fascinating world of genetics and chromosomal replication.
