Answer 1

Spermatogenesis

Question 2

3 STAGES OF SPERMATOGENESIS

Answer 2

1. Spermatocytogenesis
2. Meiosis
3. Spermiogenesis

Question 3

is the development of spermatogonia into primary spermatocytes.

Spermatogonia -> Spermatocyte

Answer 3

Spermatocytogenesis

Question 4

the two successive cell division that the primary spermatocyte and their daughter cells respectively undergo to give rise to haploid cells called spermatids.

Primary -> Secondary

Answer 5

transformation of spermatids into spermatozoa.

Spermatids -> Spermatozoa
