Explanation / Answer

Explanation:

Central vacuole: Central vacuole is the largest organelle occupying more space in the plant cell. It is bounded by a single membrane. It contains various substances like enzymes, acids, water soluble pigments and even waste materials of the cell. They offer the turgor pressure which helps in providing support and structure to the plant.

Since the first row of the table matches with the profile of central vacuole's structure and functions it is filled with central vacuole

Peroxisome: Peroxisomes are also single membrane bound organelles present in both plant and animal cells. Perixosomes are mainly responsible for lipid metabolism and convert cell toxic substances like hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.

Since the second row suits the characteristics of peroxisomes, it is filled with peroxisome

Nucleus: Nucleus is a double membraned organelle (has double membrane nuclear envelope) of the cell consisting of DNA, RNA, proteins (to be precise, protein RNA, ribosomal subunits production occurs in the nucleolus of the nucleus) and responsible for growth and reproduction of the cell. Nuclear membrane has "pores" which allow the transport of materials in and out of the nucleus. Protein synthesis initiation occurs in the nucleus. It is present in both plant and animal cells

Cytoskeleton: Cytoskeleton is present in both plant and animal cells which is a network of cross linked filaments and tubules that spread all throughout the cytoplasm thus maintaining the shape of the cell and helps in connecting the adjacent cells
