Centrioles:
- A centriole is composed of nine (9) sets of triplet microtubules.
- A triplet consists of one complete microtubule joined by two incomplete microtubules.
- Two centrioles are arranged such that one is perpendicular to the other.
- A centriole is a small cylinder-like structure or a hollow cylinder.
- Centrioles organize a 'cloud' of protein material around them, this dense material called the pericentriolar matrix (PCM), both of which form the all-important centrosomes.
- Centrioles contain RNA, which participates in the formation of esters during mitosis.
- In animal cells, centrioles form spindle fibers during cell division.
Final Answer: No, centrioles do not contain DNA.
