Tongue, light micrograph C015 / 7105
Tongue. Light micrograph of a section through healthy tongue tissue. The surface of the tongue (across top) consists of stratified squamous epithelium (dark purple) with a rough keratinised surface. Below this are interlacing bundles of muscles, between which are mucous glands. The projections on the surface of the tongue are papillae, which house the taste buds.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a healthy tongue tissue under a light microscope. The surface of the tongue, visible at the top, is composed of stratified squamous epithelium, appearing in a striking dark purple hue. This outer layer exhibits a rough and keratinized texture, providing protection and durability to this vital organ. Beneath the surface lies an intricate network of interlacing muscle bundles that enable various movements of the tongue. Nestled between these muscles are mucous glands, responsible for secreting mucus that aids in lubrication and facilitates swallowing. The fascinating projections seen on the surface are known as papillae. These small structures house taste buds, which play a crucial role in our sense of taste by detecting different flavors such as sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and umami. This remarkable image offers us a glimpse into the complex biology and anatomy behind our ability to taste and articulate speech. It serves as a reminder of how even seemingly ordinary parts of our body hold extraordinary wonders when observed through the lens of science.
