Fruit fly, SEM Z340 / 0699
Fruit fly. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the head of a fruit fly (Drosophila busckii). Its two compound eyes (red) are seen on either side of the head. Between the eyes are the antennae, which consist of small fleshy pads with bristle-like extensions called aristas. Fruit flies are widely used in genetic experiments, particularly in mutation experiments, because they reproduce rapidly and their genetic systems are well understood. Magnification: x55 when printed at 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate details of a fruit fly's head, captured through a coloured scanning electron microscope (SEM). The image reveals the distinct features that make these tiny creatures so fascinating. At first glance, one cannot miss the vibrant red compound eyes positioned on either side of the fly's head. These compound eyes are essential for their survival and enable them to perceive their surroundings with remarkable precision. Between the eyes lie the antennae, which serve as sensory organs for this species. Composed of small fleshy pads adorned with bristle-like extensions called aristas, these antennae play a crucial role in detecting chemical signals and aiding navigation. Fruit flies have become an invaluable model organism in genetic experiments due to their rapid reproduction rate and well-understood genetic systems. Scientists rely on them extensively for mutation studies and other research endeavors within genetics. This particular image was magnified 55 times its original size when printed at 10 centimeters wide, allowing us to appreciate every minute detail. Through this mesmerizing photograph by POWER AND SYRED/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, we gain insight into the microscopic world of fruit flies—a testament to both nature's complexity and humanity's relentless pursuit of scientific knowledge in fields such as biology, entomology, and genetics.
