  1. Centriole By: JT Blodgett and Joe Ziegler

  2. Structure and Location • Centrioles are found in animal cells • They are paired organelles found near the nucleus in the centrosome • They are set up in a way so that two centrioles are right angles to each other • One centriole consist of nine bundles of microtubules in a single ring

  3. Functions • The function of the centriole is it plays a substantial part in cell division • For example, centrioles and other parts of the centrosome are duplicated during interphase of an animal cell

  4. What kind of cells have centrioles? • Centrioles are only found in animal cells • They are found in pairs

  5. This is the process of cell division. The oval shaped figures above are centrosomes, the centrioles are inside.

  6. Fun Facts!!!!!!!!!! • The centrosome is also called the “microtubule organizing center” • During animal cell division, the centrosome splits and centrioles clone themselves • This results in two centrosomes with their own pair of centrioles • Plant cells centrosomes function like animal centrosomes, however, they do not have centrioles.
