Wikipedia definition
2. CentrioleA centriole is a cylindrically-shaped cell structure found in most eukaryotic cells, though it is absent in higher plants and most fungi. The walls of each centriole are usually composed of nine triplets of microtubules (protein of the cytoskeleton). Deviations from this structure include Drosophila melanogaster embryos, with nine doublets, and Caenorhabditis elegans sperm cells and early embryos, with nine singlets;. Crabs may also exhibit nine doublets, (see picture).
