To complete the table, we need to identify the organelles based on their shapes and functions. Let's go through each row step by step:
1. Protein synthesis
-
Shape: The image shows a small, round structure with ribosomes.
-
Function: Protein synthesis.
-
Organelle:
Ribosome.
2. Smooth or rough endoplasmic reticulum
-
Shape: The image shows a network of interconnected tubules.
-
Function: Smooth (no ribosomes) or rough (with ribosomes); associated with packaging, synthesis, and transport of materials.
-
Organelle:
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER).
3. Processing, packaging, and distribution of molecules
-
Shape: The image shows a series of stacked, flattened sacs.
-
Function: Processing, packaging, and distribution of molecules.
-
Organelle:
Golgi Apparatus.
4. Vesicle that contains substances that break down materials
-
Shape: The image shows a single, round vesicle.
-
Function: Contains substances that break down materials.
-
Organelle:
Lysosome.
5. Power plants of cells where energy (ATP) is produced
-
Shape: The image shows a series of elongated, folded structures.
-
Function: Produces energy (ATP).
-
Organelle:
Mitochondrion.
6. Temporarily stores food, water, waste; rather large in plant cells
-
Shape: The image shows a large, fluid-filled sac.
-
Function: Stores food, water, waste; large in plant cells.
-
Organelle:
Vacuole.
7. Found in plants and is where photosynthesis occurs
-
Shape: The image shows a green, chlorophyll-containing structure.
-
Function: Photosynthesis.
-
Organelle:
Chloroplast.
8. Found in animal cells and is used in cell division; spindle fibers attach to it
-
Shape: The image shows a pair of rod-like structures.
-
Function: Used in cell division; spindle fibers attach to it.
-
Organelle:
Centriole.
Final Table:
| Name of Organelle | Shape of Organelle | Function of Organelle |
|-------------------|--------------------|------------------------|
| Ribosome | 🟦 | Protein synthesis |

| Golgi Apparatus | 🟧 | Processing, packaging, and distribution of molecules. |
| Lysosome | ⚫ | Vesicle that contains substances that break down materials. |
| Mitochondrion | 🔴 | Power plants of cells where energy (ATP) is produced. |
| Vacuole | 🔵 | Temporarily stores food, water, waste; rather large in plant cells. |
| Chloroplast | 🟢 | Found in plants and is where photosynthesis occurs. |
| Centriole | 🟤 | Found in animal cells and is used in cell division; spindle fibers attach to it. |
Final Answer:
$$
\boxed{
\text{Ribosome, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Golgi Apparatus, Lysosome, Mitochondrion, Vacuole, Chloroplast, Centriole}
}
