Breathing out (UEB Contracted)
by Rnib BookshareThis diagram shows the outline of the chest with the lungs and respiratory tract in cross section. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. The chest is facing you and is surrounded by an image border. There are also two thumbnail diagrams at the bottom of the page. At the top centre of the page is the larynx. The tract runs down and divides, going left and right into each lung. The cut sections of the ribs surround the lungs to the left and right. Between them towards the bottom of the diagram is a curved horizontal thick line representing the diaphragm. The ribs have fallen downwards and inwards, and the diaphragm has relaxed resulting in it rising. This decreases the capacity of the chest which forces air out. The two thumbnail diagrams at the bottom of the page show the shape of the chest when breathing in on the left and out on the right.

Meiosis phase one (Large Print)
by Rnib BookshareThese pages show late interphase before meiosis, and five stages of meiosis phase one. There is a locator dot shown on each page, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. Meiosis is cell replication where a cell divides to produce four non-identical gametes, each with only one set of chromosomes instead of the usual two sets found in all other cells.Late interphase before meiosis. This page shows a cell immediately before meiosis starts. The cell is a large rounded shape in the centre of the page. Its nucleus fills the bottom of the cell and two centrioles are in the top of the cell. The twenty three pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus have replicated to form a mass of chromatids (double chromosomes) which are tightly coiled. Note the size of the nucleus and the centrioles in relation to the overall size of the cell are greatly enlarged for clarity. Only some of the chromatin is shown, also for clarity. Meiosis - stage one, early prophase I. This page shows the start of meiosis. The cell is in the centre of the page. In the top of the cell the centrioles to the left and right have the mitotic spindle growing between them. The nucleus shows two chromatids - the double chromosomes. The ends of the chromosomes of the chromatids are crossed in two places, to the top and bottom of the pair. In reality in humans there would be twenty three pairs of chromatids.Meiosis - stage one, late prophase I. This page shows chromatids after crossover. The cell is in the centre of the page. In the top of the cell the centrioles to the left and right have the mitotic spindle growing between them. The nucleus shows two chromatids - the double chromosomes. The ends of the chromosomes of the chromatids have swapped DNA coding where they were crossed. The ends to the top centre of the chromatids have swapped and the ends of the other pair of chromosomes to the bottom centre have also swapped.Meiosis - stage two, metaphase I. This page shows the completed mitotic spindle with a centriole to the left and right. The nuclear envelope has disappeared. The chromatids have attached themselves side by side to the centre of the spindle on the central microtubule by their centromeres in the centre of the image. For clarity other chromatids are not shown so the microtubule to the top and bottom of the image appears empty. In reality there would be many more pairs of chromatids and microtubules.Meiosis - stage three, anaphase I. This page shows the centromeres have separated. The microtubules of the spindle are retracting to the left and right. Each chromatid of the pair of chromosomes are migrating to opposite ends of the spindle to the left and right.Meiosis - stage four, telophase I. This page shows centrioles to the left and to the right. One chromatid is in the left and one chromatid is in the right of the cell. To the top and bottom centre of the cell the plasma membrane is pinching in and starting to divide the cytoplasm.
Chocolate cake: design proposal (large Print)
by Rnib BookshareThis page shows a key at the top left of the page, a small plan (seen from the top) view of the cake to the right, and a larger side view at the bottom. The cake is shown smaller than actual size in both views. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. The key at the top left of the page consists of three rectangular patches of texture with descriptive text to the right. The top view of the cake, at the right of the page, is roughly circular with a quarter section cut out at the bottom left. The side view of the cake has a cut-away section on the left that corresponds to the section cut out from the plan view at the top right of the page. It shows the layers and fillings inside the cake. The right hand side shows the outside of the cake with its distinctive icing pattern. A descriptive label at the bottom of the page has a leader line pointing to a highlighted clear rectangle around a section of the icing. There are dimension lines showing the actual size of the cake up the page and to the right.

Cilia and mucus secreting cells (Large Print)
by Rnib BookshareThis page shows five cells from the lining of the respiratory tract; they are surrounded by an image border. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. Four of the cells shown across the page have cilia (little hairs) which point upwards. A goblet cell (mucus secreting cell) is in the middle of the page. It has mucus above it which spreads out to cover and protect the cilia cells to the left and right. All the cells have a nucleus.

Climate Graph- Mediterranean: Rome, Italy (Large Print)
This is a graph showing temperature and precipitation over the period of a year in Rome. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. There are vertical bars indicating average monthly rainfall and a thick dashed line going across the page showing the average monthly temperature. On the left of the page is a vertical scale marked in degrees Centigrade starting from zero at the bottom. It is marked at every five degrees and labelled at every ten degrees. Running right across the page are fine horizontal grid lines. The thick dashed line representing the temperature can be found at the bottom left of the page sloping up and down to right. Across the bottom of the page are twelve labelled vertical bars showing the rainfall for each month of the year, starting with January on the left. To allow sufficient space, the braille labels are uncapitalised. At the far right of the page is a vertical scale of precipitation in millimetres, starting with zero at the bottom. This is marked every 25 mm and labelled every 50 mm.
Climate map of Europe, north and central Africa (Large Print)
by Rnib BookshareThis is a multi-page image of climate maps of Europe, north and central Africa, set on three pages. There are locator dots shown, which will be at the top left of each page when the images are the right way up.Key for climate map of Europe, north and central Africa: This page shows the key for the climate maps of Europe, north and central Africa. The rectangular areas of texture (or colour) representing the various climate regions found on the two map pages, are shown on the left of the page with descriptive text to the right.

Congruency
This diagram consists of two pairs of congruent shapes; two triangles in the middle of the page and two irregular shapes at the bottom of the page. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. The top two are congruent - the one on the right is in a mirrored position. The diagram shows how their congruency is proved. The bottom two are also congruent - the one on the right is in a rotated position. When shapes are congruent they are the same size and shape but can be rotated and/or mirrored.
