I'm sorry, but I am unable to draw images. However, I can describe the major organelles found in a generalized protozoan:
1. Nucleus: Contains the genetic material of the cell and controls cellular activities. 2. Plasma membrane: Surrounds the cell and regulates the passage of substances in and out of the cell. 3. Cytoplasm: Gel-like substance that fills the cell and contains various organelles. 4. Mitochondria: Site of cellular respiration and energy production. 5. Golgi apparatus: Involved in processing and packaging proteins for secretion. 6. Endoplasmic reticulum: Involved in protein synthesis and lipid metabolism. 7. Vacuoles: Storage organelles that may contain food, waste, or contractile vacuoles for osmoregulation. 8. Cilia or flagella: Hair-like structures used for movement. 9. Contractile vacuole: Involved in osmoregulation and expelling excess water from the cell. 10. Ribosomes: Site of protein synthesis.
These are the major organelles found in a generalized protozoan.

Organelles:
- Nucleus: Contains the genetic material (DNA). - Nucleolus: Within the nucleus, it is involved in ribosome assembly. - Ribosomes: Sites of protein synthesis. - Endoplasmic reticulum (ER): A network of membranes that transport materials within the cell. - Golgi apparatus: Modifies and packages proteins. - Mitochondria: Generate energy (ATP) through cellular respiration. - Lysosomes: Contain digestive enzymes that break down waste products and damaged organelles. - Contractile vacuole: Removes excess water from the cell. - Food vacuole: Stores ingested food particles. - Locomotor structures: Flagella or cilia for movement. - Cytoplasm: The fluid-filled interior of the cell. - Plasma membrane: The outer boundary of the cell.
