Q.Name the paired, cylindrical, membrane-less organelles that lie near the nucleus in most animal cells, oriented at right angles to each other, and give rise to the basal body of cilia and flagella.

[!TLDR]

Centrioles are the paired, right-angled organelles near the nucleus that give rise to the basal …

Centrioles are a pair of small, cylindrical, membrane-less organelles, built from nine sets of triplet microtubules (a "9 + 0" arrangement), typically found lying near the nucleus in most animal cells and oriented at right angles to one another as part of the centrosome. Besides organising the spindle fibres durin …

Match "paired," "right angles," and "gives rise to the basal body" specifically to centrioles, di …

Confusing centrioles with the basal body itself -- centrioles are the organelles that give rise to, and closely resemble, the basal body, bu …
