Q

Steps of Spermatogenesis

A
  1. Primordial germ cell divides into spermatogonia stem cell through Mitosis
  2. Spermatogonia stem cell performs mitosis to turn into spermatogonia
  3. Spermatogonia performs mitosis to form primary spermatocyte
  4. Primary spermatocyte performs Meiosis I to form secondary spermatocyte
  5. Secondary spermatocyte performs Meiosis II to produce 2 spermatids
  6. Spematid is processed into sperm(differentiation)

Q

Process of Oogenesis

A
  1. Primordial germ cell performs Mitosis to form Oogonia
  2. Oogonia divides into primary oocyte
  3. Primary oocyte performs Meiosis I to form secondary oocyte
  4. Secondary Oocyte performs Meiosis II but paused, waiting for sperm
  5. If oocyte is fertilized, becomes baby, If not fertilized, girls has menopause

Q

4 Differences of Spermatogenesis and Oogenesis

A
  1. Spermatogenesis begins at puberty and is continuous (Never Ends)
    Oogenesis begins in the fetus but pauses in Certain stages
  2. Spermatogenesis has no pauses
    Oogenesis pauses in prophase I until puberty, Pauses when one egg cell enters Metaphase II
  3. Spermatogenesis ends when we die
    Oogenesis ends at ±50 years old
  4. In spermatogenesis 1 precursor cell becomes 4 sperm cell
    In Oogenesis 1 precursor cell becomes only 1 egg cell
