Contains cell in the body
The centriole is the organelle that gives rise to basal bodies. Basal bodies are associated with the microtubule organization within cilia and flagella.
The basal body is typically found in animal cells. It is a structure located at the base of cilia and flagella, helping to anchor and organize these cell appendages. Plants do not have cilia or flagella, so they generally do not have basal bodies.
Centrioles, basal bodies, cilia, and flagella are primarily composed of microtubules, which are cylindrical structures made of tubulin protein. Centrioles consist of a specific arrangement of nine triplets of microtubules, while basal bodies serve as the anchoring structures for cilia and flagella, consisting of nine pairs of microtubules arranged in a circular pattern. Cilia and flagella have a core structure called the axoneme, which typically features a "9+2" arrangement of microtubules—nine doublets surrounding two central singlets. These structures play essential roles in cellular movement and the organization of the cytoskeleton.
The two rod-shaped bodies at the base of cilia are called basal bodies. Basal bodies act as anchoring points for the cilia and are involved in the organization and control of ciliary movement.
Centriole and Microtubules
The centriole is the organelle that gives rise to basal bodies. Basal bodies are associated with the microtubule organization within cilia and flagella.
Basal bodies are most closely associated with cilia and flagella in eukaryotic cells. They serve as the base for the growth and extension of these cellular appendages.

Basal bodies are most closely associated with centrioles and cilia/flagella in eukaryotic cells. They are involved in the organization of microtubules and play a role in cell division, motility, and cellular organization.
Basal bodies found in eukaryotic cells are identical to centrioles in terms of structure and function. Basal bodies are involved in organizing microtubules within the cell, playing a role in cell division and the formation of cilia and flagella.

Centriole and Microtubules
Basal bodies and centrioles are similar in structure and function. Both are cylindrical structures composed of microtubules and play a role in organizing the microtubules in the cell. Basal bodies are found in the base of cilia and flagella, while centrioles are found in pairs near the nucleus and are involved in cell division.
Basal bodies typically have a single membrane surrounding them, which is derived from the cell's plasma membrane. They are cylindrical structures made up of microtubules arranged in a specific pattern, similar to the structure of centrioles. Basal bodies serve as anchoring points for cilia and flagella but do not have multiple membranes like some other cellular organelles.
They both are hairlike processes on certain anatomical cells and motile organisms.
