AI overview
A centriole is a tiny, cylindrical structure found in most animal cells that is made up of nine groups of three microtubules arranged in a ring pattern. Centrioles help organize the cell's internal skeleton and play an important role in dividing cells by helping to position the machinery that pulls apart chromosomes during cell division.
