The Nucleolus
The Nucleolus is a small organelle found in the nucleus. It is pictured at left as the black structure within the larger circular nucleus. Its purpose is producing ribosomes. The ribosomes produced then are used to transcribe proteins for the cell in the process of Transcription. It also has some other uses involving proteins within the cell.
Not a lot else to say here. TL;DR: It's a small structure within the nucleus that makes ribosomes for the cell.
