Centrioles are found in animal cells, but not plant cells. They help to organize the assembly of microtubules during cell division. Centrioles are found within cell structures known as centrosomes. During cell division, the centrosome and centrioles replicate and migrate to opposite ends of the cell.
The peroneus brevis tendon and peroneus longus tendon merge in a sheath behind the ankle. When the corresponding muscles are flexed, the tendons slide inside the sheath. Symptoms of injury to the peroneus brevis tendon include swelling as well as pain at the base of the little toe or in the outer ankle area.
The terms Peroneus (i.e., Longus and Brevis) and Peroneal (i.e., Artery, Retinaculum) are derived from the Greek word Perone (pronounced Pair-uh-knee) meaning pin of a brooch or a buckle. In medical terminology, both terms refer to being of or relating to the fibula or to the outer portion of the leg.he fibularis longus and brevis muscles plantar-flex the foot, in conjunction with the tibialis posterior, antagonizing the tibialis anterior and fibularis tertius, which are dorsi-flexors of the foot.
