Description

Differential interference contrast image of Closterium costatum, a unicellar desmid. Every binary fission creates a cross line on the cell wall. The single cross line seen here indicates that this cell has only undergone its first binary fission after developing from a zygote. Honorable Mention, 2010 Olympus BioScapes Digital Imaging Competition®
