The centriole is a non-membraneous, self-replicating organelle present near the nucleus in all the animal cells. It is generally present in pairs and is surrounded by a distinct cytoplasm, which together forms centrosome. It is hollow cylinder filled with matrix. Basal bodies have the same structure as that of centriole but they can occur in eukaryotic cells which bear cilia and flagella and are without cenosphere. They can be changed to centriole when it is required. The basal plate is a plate-like band present between basal body and shaft of cilia/flagella. So take this quiz and increase your knowledge about centriole, basal bodies, and basal plate.
