Centrosome and Centrioles

Structure:

  • Centrosome is an organelle which is made up of two centrioles. 
  • These organelles are mainly found in most of the animal cells. 
  • Centrioles are also called diplosomes. 
  • They are non-membranous organelles. 
  • They are surrounded with pericentriolar material. 
  • The centrioles are present inside a specialised cytoplasm called centrosphere or kinoplasm. 
  • The centrosphere and centrioles are together called centrosomes. 
  • Centrioles are composed of tubulin proteins. 
  • There are 9 units of tubulin in the periphery and none in the centre, the arrangement becomes 9+0. 
  • Centrioles are mainly involved the cell division. 
  • They form the spindle fibres for the attachment of the chromosomes and their distribution during the cell division. 
  • They also take part in the  formation of cilia and flagella. 
  • They help in the development of tail fibres of the sperm.

Centrioles are present in the basal body of cilia and flagella. Chlorophyll is present in
the thylakoids. Cristae are infoldings in mitochondria. Ribozymes are ribonucleic acid that act as enzymes.
