The fragment of a cell is stretched over the pill, beginning with a section of a radiation, then a tetrahedrally arranged molecule in the clockwise direction, the full view of a ray, and a bee.

Within a hexagon placed, on the right in the silver ring the structure of a virus with membrane cover can be seen. In the clockwise direction are followed by polioviruses, then spiral-shaped spirules and cocci (the latter two are also surrounded by hexes), a ray-beast and a cell-division process. In addition to the three hexes, molecules are indicated.
