The human tongue has about 10,000 taste buds that are involved with detecting salty, sour, bitter, sweet and savoury taste perceptions. 7. Tooth plaque Image: David Gregory & Debbie Marshall, Wellcome ImagesDavid Gregory & Debbie Marshall, Wellcome Images Brush your teeth often because this is what the surface of a tooth with a form of “corn-on-the-cob” plaque looks like. 8. Blood clot Image: David Gregory & Debbie Marshall, Wellcome ImagesDavid Gregory & Debbie Marshall, Wellcome Images Remember that picture of the nice, uniform shapes of red blood cells you just looked at? Well, here’s what it looks like when those same cells get caught up in the sticky web of a blood clot. The cell in the middle is a white blood cell. 9. Alveoli in the lung Image: David Gregory & Debbie Marshall, Wellcome ImagesDavid Gregory & Debbie Marshall, Wellcome Images This is what a colour-enhanced image of the inner surface of your lung looks like. The hollow cavities are alveoli; this is where gas exchange occurs with the blood. 10. Lung cancer cells Image: Anne Weston, Wellcome ImagesAnne Weston, Wellcome Images This image of warped lung cancer cells is in stark contrast to the healthy lung in the previous picture. 11. Villi of small intestine Image: Professor Alan Boyde, Wellcome ImagesProfessor Alan Boyde, Wellcome Images Villi in the small intestine increase the surface area of the gut, which helps in the absorption of food. Look closely and you’ll see some food stuck in one of the crevices. 12. Human egg with coronal cells Image: Yorgos Nikas, Wellcome ImagesYorgos Nikas, Wellcome Images This image is of a purple, colour-enhanced human egg sitting on a pin. The egg is coated with the zona pellicuda, a glycoprotein that protects the egg but also helps to trap and bind sperm. Two coronal cells are attached to the zona pellicuda. 13. Sperm on the surface of a human egg Image: Yorgos Nikas, Wellcome ImagesYorgos Nikas, Wellcome Images Here’s a close-up of a number of sperm trying to fertilise an egg. 14. Human embryo and sperm Image: Dr. David Becker, Wellcome ImagesDr. David Becker, Wellcome Images It looks like the world at war, but it’s actually five days after the fertilisation of an egg, with some remaining sperm cells still sticking around. This fluorescent image was captured using a confocal microscope. The embryo and sperm cell nuclei are stained purple while sperm tails are green. The blue areas are gap junctions, which form connections between the cells. 15. Coloured image of a 6 day old human embryo implanting Image: Yorgos Nikas, Wellcome ImagesYorgos Nikas, Wellcome Images And the cycle of life begins again: this 6 day old human embryo is beginning to implant into the endometrium, the lining of the uterus.
