Mitochondria, artwork C013 / 4991
Mitochondria, computer artwork. Mitochondria are a type of organelle found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. They oxidise sugars and fats to produce energy in a process called respiration. A mitochondrion has two membranes, a smooth outer membrane and a folded inner membrane. The folds of the inner membrane are called cristae, and it is here that the chemical reactions to produce energy take place

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Mitochondria, artwork C013 / 4991" showcases the intricate beauty of mitochondria through a stunning computer-generated illustration. Mitochondria are essential organelles found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells that play a crucial role in energy production. The image vividly portrays the structure of a mitochondrion, consisting of two distinct membranes - an outer smooth membrane and an inner folded membrane known as cristae. These folds provide a large surface area where chemical reactions occur to generate energy through respiration. Gunilla Elam's artistic representation perfectly captures the complexity and elegance of these tiny powerhouses within our cells. The detailed illustration highlights their membranous nature and emphasizes their significance in cellular metabolism. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are reminded of the remarkable intricacies hidden within every living organism. It serves as a testament to the wonders of biology and cell biology specifically, showcasing how even small groups like mitochondria can have profound impacts on our existence. This print from Science Photo Library is not only visually striking but also serves as an educational tool for those interested in delving into the fascinating world of cytology and intracellular processes.
