Sorrel leaf stoma, SEM C016 / 8055
Sorrel leaf stoma. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a stoma (oval, centre) on the surface of a leaf from a common sorrel (Rumex acetosa) plant. Stomata are pores that are the site of gaseous exchange in the plant. The opening and closing of the stomata is controlled by semicircular guard cells, which swell and become turgid to close the openings. Magnification: x935, when printed 10 centimetres high

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a sorrel leaf stoma. In this colored scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a close-up view of an oval-shaped stoma positioned at the center of a common sorrel plant's leaf surface. Stomata, such as this one, play a vital role in facilitating gaseous exchange within plants. They act as tiny pores through which gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide can enter or exit the plant. The mesmerizing details captured by this SEM image reveal the fascinating anatomy of stomata. Semicircular guard cells encircle the stoma, acting as gatekeepers that control its opening and closing. When these guard cells become turgid and swell, they effectively seal off the pore to regulate gas exchange. At an impressive magnification of x935, when printed 10 centimeters high, this photograph allows us to appreciate nature's intricacies on a microscopic level. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly ordinary flora like common sorrel plants (Rumex acetosa), there exists extraordinary complexity waiting to be discovered. With its vibrant colors and meticulous detail, this print is not only visually stunning but also offers valuable insights into cell structure and botany. It is truly an exquisite piece for any biology enthusiast or admirer of nature's wonders.
