Which cell organelle helps in cell division in an animal cell?
Answers
Explanation:
Centrioles
Centrioles are organelles involved in cell division. The function of centrioles is to help organize the chromosomes before cell division occurs so that each daughter cell has the correct number of chromosomes after the cell divides. Centrioles are found only in animal cells and are located near the nucleus.
Answer:
Centriole is the organelle which is present in animals and required for cell division.
Explanation:
A centriole is a barrel shaped structure which is found near the nuclear envelope in the cytoplasm of animal cells. Centrioles help to organize microtubules, which serve as the cell's skeletal system. They aid in the placement of the nucleus and other organelles within the cell. Centrioles helps in the formation of spindle fibers and it moves towards opposite poles and helps in the division of a cell. The spindle fibers separate the chromosomes towards each pole during cell division Each animal cell has two centrioles and these centrioles can form many other centrioles during the cell division. Since they possess microfilaments (microtubules) therefore they aid in cellular division.
