Photographic Print : Foraminiferan test (shell) SEM
Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Foraminiferan test (shell) SEM
Foraminiferan test or shell (Elphidium crispum) lateral view, coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM). Foraminifera are single-celled protozoa which construct and inhabit shells composed of several chambers. These are usually penetrated by pores through which the cellular contents is extruded. The organisms live in the sea or salt-water lakes. The shells form an important component of chalk. In previous geological ages foraminifera occurred in such enormous numbers that their shells, largely of calcium carbonate, have formed immense fossil deposits seen today as chalk and limestone. Magnification x132 at 10cm wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a Foraminiferan test, also known as a shell. The image, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), reveals the lateral view of an Elphidium crispum shell in stunning detail. Foraminifera are single-celled protozoa that construct and inhabit shells composed of multiple chambers. These shells play a crucial role in forming chalk, which is found abundantly in fossil deposits from previous geological ages. The sheer number of foraminifera during those times has resulted in immense chalk and limestone formations visible today. The colored SEM photograph highlights the delicate structure of the shell, with its numerous pores through which cellular contents are extruded. This microscopic world comes to life as we witness these tiny organisms thriving in saltwater lakes or oceans. With a magnification factor of x132 and measuring 10cm wide, this image allows us to appreciate the complexity and diversity present within our planet's marine ecosystems. It serves as a reminder that even at such small scales, nature never fails to amaze us with its intricacy. Power and Syred have masterfully captured this remarkable moment frozen in time, offering us an opportunity to marvel at the wonders hidden beneath our seas.
