Photographic Print : False-colour SEM of sperm in uterus
Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
False-colour SEM of sperm in uterus
Sperm in uterus. False-colour scanning electron micrograph of a human sperm on the inner surface of the uterus, the endometrium. The head of the sperm appears buried in the grass-like ciliated epithelium. Tiny projections or microvilli cover the remaining secretory cells, which provide a moist environment & nutrition to both ova and sperm. Sperm remain incapable of fertilising an ovum until after undergoing capacitation, a process which occurs within the female tract. The close association of the sperm with the ciliated cells in this image may relate to this process. Magnification: x4030 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a false-colour scanning electron micrograph of human sperm within the uterus. The intricate details captured in this image provide an insight into the reproductive system and its complex processes. The head of a single sperm can be observed, seemingly buried amidst the grass-like ciliated epithelium that lines the inner surface of the uterus, known as the endometrium. These tiny projections or microvilli cover other secretory cells, which play a crucial role in providing nourishment and maintaining a moist environment for both ova and sperm. Interestingly, this image highlights that sperm are unable to fertilize an ovum until they undergo capacitation - a process occurring within the female tract. The close association between the sperm and ciliated cells depicted here may indicate their involvement in this vital process. With a magnification level of x4030 at 6x7cm size, every minute detail is brought to life through this stunning photograph from Science Photo Library. It offers valuable insights into reproduction, anatomy, and specifically focuses on aspects related to sperms' journey within the female body. This remarkable visual representation serves as a testament to scientific advancements in capturing microscopic wonders while shedding light on our understanding of human fertility and reproduction.
