Figures 323 & 324 from Chapter 13 (Cilia and Flagella) of 'The Cell' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. The outer segments of the rods and cones of the vertebrate retina and many photoreceptors of invertebrates b...

This confocal micrograph shows the detailed structure of the retina from a one-month-old mouse. The retina is the photoreceptive organ of the eye. It is composed of layers of neuronal cells that captu...

TEM image of epon section of a freeze-substituted mouse retina illustrating the unusual distribution of heterochromatin in rod receptor nuclei where the compact heterochromatin is centrally located. W...

Confocal micrograph of the head region of a transgenic zebrafish embryo. The large circular structure is the eye, showing the structure of the retina. Some neurons in the brain are highlighted in gre...

Ultrastructural Characterization of the Mouse Optic nerve Head and Retina

Scanning electron microscope image of Nicotiana alata stem cross section. Image shows outer epidermal layer, followed by the cortex and then large vascular bundles. The vascular bundles contain the ph...

Cone and rod mitochondria: electron tomography

Scanning electron microscope image of cross-section through a Psidium guajava stem. The image shows the thin outer epidermal layer with a thick layer of cortex beneath. The vascular area consists of ...

Cone and rod mitochondria: electron tomography

This photomicrograph shows the retina from the eye of a three-day-old zebrafish. The retina is viewed here from the front, as if the viewer is looking directly into the eye of the fish. This image is...
