The modified cell organelle involved in the formation of cilium and flagellum is
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is C Centriole
- Cilia and flagella are small hair-like projections from the cell and are composed of microtubules which are arranged with their positive end at the outer tip of the axoneme.
- A microtubule is a tubular linear polymer of tubulin protein which is a part of the cytoskeleton that helps to provide structure and shape to the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell.
- In animal cells, the centrioles forms the flagella and cilia.
- So, the correct answer is 'Centriole'.
