Chromosome
Chromosome. Computer artwork of a condensed chromosome. Chromosomes, which consist of two identical chromatids joined at a centromere (centre), are composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) coiled around proteins. DNA contains sections, called genes, which encode the bodys genetic information, determining each cells structure, function and behaviour

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a condensed chromosome. The computer artwork captures the essence of this fundamental unit of life, composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) coiled around proteins. Chromosomes play a crucial role in heredity, encoding the genetic information that determines each cell's structure, function, and behavior. The magnified image reveals a single chromosome with two identical chromatids joined at its centromere. These sections are responsible for carrying genes - segments of DNA that hold the key to our body's genetic blueprint. It is through these genes that we inherit traits and characteristics from our ancestors. In this monochrome illustration, every detail is meticulously depicted, highlighting the complexity and importance of chromosomes in biology and anatomy. The artist skillfully portrays the coiled nature of DNA within this condensed structure. This mesmerizing artwork serves as a reminder of how microscopic subjects can hold immense significance in understanding ourselves and all living organisms. Science Photo Library has once again captured an awe-inspiring moment in scientific exploration with their stunning computer-generated representation of a chromosome – an essential piece in unraveling the mysteries behind genetics and inheritance.
