      Here’s what I found on the internet, it’s just a definition, so maybe you can fudge it: The primary microtubule organising center (MTOC) of animal cells, that divides prior to cell division each daughter MTOC acts as one pole of the spindle apparatus. The centrosome usually contains a pair of centrioles.

      A brief search will divuldge that vast applications of centrioles (somes), I shall aid you: Meisosis, Mitosis, and Microtubles.
