Full Set of Male Chromosomes SEM C013 / 7201
Set of human chromosomes, coloured scanning election micrograph (SEM). Chromosomes are a packaged form of the genetic material DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). The DNA condenses into chromosomes during cell replication for ease of division and transport into the new cell. A complete set of chromosomes is known as a karyotype. In humans, there are 46 chromosomes, consisting of 23 chromosome pairs. Magnification: x7500 (x1850 at 10cm wide)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a full set of male chromosomes, captured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals the intricate and colorful world of human genetics. Chromosomes are bundles of DNA, the genetic material that carries our unique traits and characteristics. During cell replication, DNA condenses into chromosomes to facilitate division and transportation into new cells. A karyotype refers to a complete set of chromosomes, and in humans, it consists of 46 chromosomes organized into 23 pairs. Each pair includes one chromosome inherited from each parent. This SEM micrograph allows us to marvel at the condensed structure of these vital carriers of genetic information. The magnification level used for this photograph is an impressive x7500 (x1850 at 10cm wide), enabling us to explore the minute details within each chromosome pair. The vibrant colors highlight different regions or segments within the chromosomes. Understanding our genetic makeup is crucial in unraveling various aspects related to human health and development. By studying these microscopic wonders, scientists gain insights into how genes influence our physical attributes, susceptibility to diseases, and even behavioral traits. This awe-inspiring image was captured by POWER AND SYRED/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY – a testament to their dedication in bringing scientific discoveries closer through visually stunning prints like this one.
