This scanning electron microscope (SEM) image revealed some of the ultrastructural features observed on the surface of a protozoan Acanthamoeba polyphaga. Note the amorphous nature of the organisms exterior from which the pseudopodia can extend. These pseudopodia allow the amoeba to move and grasp objects in its environment.

These grape-like clusters are the reproductive cells of the Portuguese-Man-o-War, or Bluebottle. (Physalia physalis) Its reproductive organs are not enclosed within a corporate body and consist of a multitude of cells that are highly specialised and cooperative, but independent.

This trypan blue stained photomicrograph revealed a number of Acanthamoeba sp. organisms that were in their vegetative or trophozoite stage of development and that had been grown on a culture of fibroblast cells that had undergone the process of low-speed centrifugation.

Fusobacterium mortiferum. Colonies of Fusobacterium mortiferum bacilli cultured on agar-agar in Petri dish. Fusobacterium spp normally live in the human gastrointestinal tract, and oral cavity. These organisms can become pathogenic under circumstances such as disruption of the normal intestinal mucosa, trauma or surgery.

Circular Sand Dunes. Sand dunes of many shapes and sizes are common on Mars. In this example, the dunes are almost perfectly circular, which is unusual. They are still slightly asymmetrical, with steep slip faces on the south ends. This indicates that sand generally moves to the south, but the winds may be variable. This is part of a series of images to monitor how frost disappears in the late winter; this observation appears to be free of frost. A previous image shows when the surface was covered by frost. https //photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA25795

Sea urchin (Echinometra mathaei) The nipple-like protuberances are the ball joints to which are attached a forest of protective spines. When the creature dies, the spines fall off exposing the ball joints which are part of the skeleton (known as a test).

Colorized transmission electron micrograph of mpox virus particles (green) found within infected VERO E6 cells (brown). The virus particles are in various stages of maturity, which accounts for differences in shape. This image also features virus factories (blue), which are inclusions within infected cells where virus replication, maturation, and assembly occurs.

ISS016-E-011999 (22 Nov. 2007) --- Sao Simao Reservoir, Brazil is featured in this image photographed by an Expedition 16 crewmember on the International Space Station (ISS). The Sao Simao reservoir, near the confluence of the Rio Paranaiba and Rio Verde in Brazil, is the featured subject in a milestone image of Earth. This colorful, patchwork image is the 300,000th image of Earth downlinked from the space station. There are now over 745,000 images of Earth taken by astronaut crews, beginning with the Mercury missions in 1961 and continuing to the present day on the ISS. The Sao Simao reservoir is located on the border between the states of Goias and Minas Gerais (near the geographic coordinates of 18.7S 50.4W). Though the town of Sao Simao was founded around 1935, major growth occurred when the hydroelectric power plant and dam were built - forming the reservoir -- in 1975. The reservoir is part of a major navigation link that allows transport of goods and commerce between central Bra
