• B. Microtubules are made up of a globular protein called tubulin
• C. Centrioles are found in the microtubule organising centres of plants

Answer 1

The correct option is C Centrioles are found in the microtubule organising centres of plants

Centrioles are the organelles which are found only in animal cells and are located together near the nucleus in the centrosome. They form the spindle apparatus and aster during cell division. They are absent in plant cells.

So, the correct option is 'Centrioles are found in the microtubule organizing centers of plants'.
