Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Cytoplasmic streaming in onion cells
Cytoplasmic streaming. Coloured light micrograph (LM) of a section through some onion cells, Allium cepa, showing cytoplasmic streaming. Strands of cytoplasm can be seen in the cell at centre. Cytoplasmic streaming, or cyclosis, is the mechanism by which general transport and solute movement takes place within the cell. This two-way process is aided by protein microtubules of the cells cytoskeleton. Cellular transport also occurs by diffusion. The cytoplasm is a viscous fluid inside the cell wall that surrounds the nucleus and other cell contents. Differential interference contrast. Magnification: x330 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing phenomenon of cytoplasmic streaming in onion cells. The image, taken using a colored light micrograph, reveals a section through several onion cells (Allium cepa) with strands of cytoplasm visibly flowing within the central cell. Cytoplasmic streaming, also known as cyclosis, is an essential mechanism for transporting substances and solutes within the cell. The intricate process relies on protein microtubules present in the cell's cytoskeleton to facilitate two-way movement. Additionally, cellular transport occurs through diffusion. The cytoplasm itself is a thick fluid that fills the space between the cell wall and encloses various cellular components including the nucleus. Differential interference contrast was employed to capture this stunning image at a magnification of x330 on a 35mm scale. This technique enhances contrast by exploiting differences in refractive indices among different parts of the specimen. This photograph not only highlights the beauty inherent in botanical science but also provides valuable insights into plant structure and cellular dynamics. It serves as a reminder of nature's complexity and showcases how even seemingly simple organisms like onions possess intricate mechanisms for sustaining life at microscopic levels.
