Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Centrioles are cylindrical structures made up of microtubule triplets arranged in a 9 + 0 pattern. They play a role in organizing microtubules during cell division. Option A refers to the structure of cilia and flagella, not centrioles. Option C refers to mitochondria, not centrioles. Option D is incorrect, as centrioles are found in animal cells, not plant cells. Option E refers to actin filaments, not centrioles.
