Legionella pneumophila (TEM)

Legionella pneumophila, the causative agent of legionnaires' disease. Legionella pneumophila was first identified as an agent of disease after after a mysterious outbreak of pneumonia caused 29 deaths at an American Legion convention in 1976. The bacteria was found living in watertanks, showerheads and air-conditioning systems. The disease, also called legionellosis, often causes fatal pneumonic lung damage in the elderly and weak.

Narrowed Artery (atheroma)

Light micrograph illustrates a transverse section of an artery exhibiting partial obstruction due to the presence of an atheroma (depicted in light pink at the bottom). Atheroma refers to the accumulation of lipid-rich materials within the arterial wall, which can significantly diminish the lumen's diameter (the inner space shown in white). This narrowing impedes adequate blood flow, resulting in ischemia to the tissues that depend on that arterial supply. In cases where the arteries supplying the heart become completely occluded, this condition may lead to a myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack.

Fruit Fly Mutant

Scanning electron micrograph of an "ectopic eye" mutant of Drosophila melanogaster, also known as the vinegar fly or fruit fly. In this mutant, the eyes grow on different parts of the body (in this image on the antennae). A "switch for the eye" was built into the animal at various chromosome regions by gene manipulation.
