Question

in plant cells __________ perform the function of centrioles

Open in App
Solution

In plant cells centrosomes perform function of centrioles.
Plant cells have centrosomes instead of centriole and play the similar roles in cell division i.e formation of spindle fibres as what centrioles play in cell division of animal cells. But centrosomes have relatively simpler organisation than centriole in animal cells.
