40. 3.1 Cell Theory Centrioles are tubes found in the centrosomes. – –Centrioles help divide DNA. – –Centrioles form cilia and flagella. Cilia & flagella assist in movement and feeding – –Cilia – short, numerous hair-like extensions – –Flagella – longer, move with a whip-like motion – cell usually only has 1 or 2 3.2
