Stinging nettle hair
Videonummer 11936970
| Microscopic footage of a stinging hair of a stinging nettle plant (Urtica dioica). Initially the tip of the needle is seen, before showing fluid movement within the hair, and then the emission of the stinging chemicals. Nettles bear many stinging hairs on their stems and leaves, which act as needles that inject a solution into the skin that causes pain and inflammation. The stinging solution contains histamine, acetylcholine, serotonin and other chemicals, and causes painful welts. This acts to deter predators. | |
