Question

All of the following statements are true for centriole, except


Helps in formation of basal bodies of cilia/flagella


Forms spindle fibres during cell division in animal cells


It has an organisation like the cartwheel


It is the site where two chromatids of a chromosome are held together

Answer 1

Answer:

yaa all are correct statement s

Answer 2

Answer:

The false statement about the centriole is, it has an organisation like the cartwheel.

Explanation:

• The main function of centriole is to help with cell division in animal cells.
• The centrioles also help form the spindle fibers that separate the chromosomes during cell division (mitosis).
• The second function of centrioles that we will focus on is ciliogenesis. Celiogenesis is the formation of cilia and flagella on the surface of cells. Cilia and flagella help in the movement of cells.
• Centrioles are paired barrel-shaped organelles located in the cytoplasm of animal cells near the nuclear envelope.
• The centrosome is surrounded by amorphous pericentriolar materials that have an organization like a cartwheel.
