Deep in the basement of Anatomy Building of UCL, we had a little tour in the microscope section...
Here it goes!
This is a cancer cell which is about to die. The cell structure is being broken down.
Taken with a SEM(Scanning electron microscope).
We didn't know what this is at first... After a heated discussion, we reached the agreement that the mars-surface like thing is most likely to be a fine piece of dust......
This is a slice of cancer cell. The big moon-like nucleus is undergoing death procedure by expanding itself. The little bubble-like structures underneath the nucleus are sections of broken internal organelles. Taken with a TEM(transmission electron micoscope).
The section between three Schwann cells surrounding the Axon of neuron cells.
Structure of a mitocondria.
