Nerve cell, SEM
Nerve cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a nerve cell (neuron). Neurons are responsible for passing information around the central nervous system (CNS) and from the CNS to the rest of the body. Each nerve cell comprises a body surrounded by numerous extensions called dendrites. Dendrites collect information from other nerve cells or from sensory cells. Each neuron also has one process called an axon, which passes information to other nerve cells, or to effector cells such as muscle fibres. Magnification: x15, 000 when printed at 10 centimetres across

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a nerve cell, captured through a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The vibrant colors bring to life the complex structure of this vital component of our central nervous system. Neurons play a crucial role in transmitting information throughout our bodies. At the center of this image is the cell body, surrounded by an array of dendrites. These dendrites act as extensions that gather information from other nerve cells and sensory cells. They resemble delicate branches reaching out to connect and communicate with their surroundings. The axon, seen as a single process extending from the neuron's body, serves as the messenger. It carries important signals either to other nerve cells or to effector cells like muscle fibers. This communication network allows for seamless coordination within our biological systems. With a magnification level of x15,000 when printed at 10 centimeters across, this photograph highlights not only the fragility but also the incredible complexity present within each individual nerve cell. It reminds us of how intricately designed our own anatomy is and how essential these neural connections are for our overall well-being. This stunning illustration provides insight into neurology and biology while showcasing both scientific precision and artistic flair - truly capturing the wonders hidden within ourselves.
