EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of snake intestinal villi. The coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) provides a close-up view of the folds in the surface of a snake's intestine, revealing their unique structure and composition. The short villi are covered in cuboidal mucosal cells, which play a crucial role in digestion and nutrient absorption. Interestingly, the thickness of the mucosa can vary significantly depending on whether the snake is fasting or has recently eaten. At a magnification of x80 when printed at 10 centimetres across, this image allows us to appreciate the remarkable details that exist within nature's design. It offers an insight into the complex biology and physiology of these reptilian creatures. With its vibrant colours and precise focus, this photograph not only captures scientific curiosity but also highlights the incredible diversity found within our natural world. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly ordinary organisms possess extraordinary features worth exploring. As part of Science Photo Library's extensive collection on wildlife and zoology, this image contributes to our understanding of herpetology and reptilian anatomy. Its false-coloured presentation adds an artistic touch while maintaining scientific accuracy, making it both visually striking and informative for enthusiasts in various fields such as biology or animal research.
