Q

Maturation phase

A

Primary spermatocyte undergoes and complete meiosis I . Secondary spermatocytes undergoes meiosis II . Spermatids differentiate . The stage of spermatogenesis which the spermatids differentiate into mature spermatozoa is known as spermiogenesis l Spermatozoa released into the lumen of seminiferous tubule .
