  • Close-up of a female mosquito (Aedes sp.) biting a human. Female mosquitoes have a long proboscis adapted for piercing skin in order to feed on blood which is necessary to the female's reproductive cycle. The males of the species do not feed on blood and therefore do not transmit dangerous viruses. This mosquito was photographed on Grand Manan Island off the coast of New Brunswick, Canada.

  • This gorged female mosquito (Aedes sp.) has been crushed in retaliation by its human victim. Female mosquitoes have a long proboscis adapted for piercing skin in order to feed on blood which is necessary to the female's reproductive cycle. The males of the species do not feed on blood and therefore do not transmit dangerous viruses. This mosquito was photographed on Grand Manan Island off the coast of New Brunswick, Canada.

  • The pollen from a male cannabis plant is nestled into the female stigma and is in the process of transferring genetic material to the female to create a seed.  The pollen is 20 um in diameter. A single grain of pollen is too small to see with the human eye. The pollen is scattered by air current to pollenate the female plant.

  • False Color X-ray of a snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina). This particular turtle is a female and is full of eggs.  This specimen was collected after it was killed by a car – look closely at the x-ray and you can see extensive shell damage as well as a number of unlaid eggs. This freshwater turtle is found in wetlands throughout North America, from southern Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. An adult can have a shell length of around 45 centimeters.  They feed on whatever they can catch in their powerful beaks, including fish, birds, mammals, amphibians and carrion.

  • A scanning electron microscope image of the football shaped bract of the female  cannabis (Cannabis sativa) flower. The oval bract structure houses the stigma and is responsible for producing seeds when the flower has been pollinated. This bract structure is also the location of the highest concentration of cannabinoid compounds on the plant.  This site is also the location of the highest concentration of THC. There are a number of different types of cell structures called trichomes in this image. The thorn-like trichomes use a physical defense while the circular glandular trichomes use chemical defense. Combined, these defenses keep insects and animals from eating the plant. Each circular glandular trichome is 50 um in diameter in this image.

  • Germinating seeds of the hemp or marijuana plant (Cannabis sativa). Marijuana contains THC (delta 9 tetrahydrocannabinol), a psychoactive compound. The Cannabis plant is native to central Asia. It is cultivated for three products: fibre from the stems, seed oil, and for use as a drug of intoxication. This fast-growing annual plant is a common weed in northern India. The drug is produced in minute resin glands on the plant surface, including the leaves, but is most concentrated in female flowers.

  • Scanning electron microscope image of the dark flower in the center of a Queen Anne's Lace ( Daucus carota) Flower. Queen Anne's Lace , is also known as Wild Carrot or Bird's Nest . An introduced weed that is abundant throughout much of temperate North America east of the Sierras. It is the wild form of the domesticated garden carrot.  The USDA has listed it as a noxious weed. The calibration bar is 200um or .2mm.  This image was collected at 231x..The luna moth has one of the most sensitive antenna of any insect.  The males antenna has the sole purpose of smelling out a female for mating.

  • Germinating seeds of the hemp or marijuana plant (Cannabis sativa). Marijuana contains THC (delta 9 tetrahydrocannabinol), a psychoactive compound. The Cannabis plant is native to central Asia. It is cultivated for three products: fibre from the stems, seed oil, and for use as a drug of intoxication. This fast-growing annual plant is a common weed in northern India. The drug is produced in minute resin glands on the plant surface, including the leaves, but is most concentrated in female flowers.
