This cell organelle consists of two granule-like ~centrioles~ and is found in animal cells only. It helps in cell division. Name, please!
The function of centrioles is to aid in cell division by organizing the microtubules that make up the cell's cytoskeleton.
Most cells have two centrioles, although some specialized cells may have more or less.
Centrioles are cylindrical structures made up of nine sets of microtubule triplets, arranged in a circular pattern.
No, centrioles are only found in animal cells and are absent in plant cells.
Centrioles play a crucial role in the formation of cilia and flagella, which are hair-like structures that aid in cell movement and movement of fluids and substances around the cell.
