Explanation

In Spirogyra, the nucleus is suspended by cytoplasmic strands that radiate from the central axis to the cell periphery. These delicate strands of cytoplasm provide structural support, holding the nucleus in place within the large vacuolated cell. The chloroplasts are arranged in helical spirals, while the vacuole occupies most of the cell's interior volume.
