Answer

Even when observing the diagram, ribosomes should be marked as the organelle synthesizing proteins. If unable to determine from the diagram, verify more in-depth.

Explain

Given that we cannot view the diagram, it isn't possible to specify which organelle does protein synthesis. However, in a cell, proteins are synthesized in the ribosomes. This is a universal fact, regardless of if we can or cannot refer to a diagram. Ribosomes are essential components of cells, present in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, contributing to protein synthesis. They form complexes, called polyribosomes or polysomes, to create a protein molecule, translating through this process an mRNA (Messenger RNA) molecule into protein respectively. Reviewing the diagram, the organelle that corresponds to the ribosomes, should have a high density, spherical, and are found attached to the Endoplasmic Reticulum or freely roaming in the cytoplasm. With this information contributing to the translation process which depicts protein synthesis, in greener terms: Transcription in the nucleus→mRNA in the nucleus to Cytoplasm→ribosome scans mRNA→Transfer RNA matches with exposed codon→amino acids attach to growing protein chain and process continues.
