Immediately under the capsule of the tubule are diploid, undifferentiated cells.These stem cells, called spermatogonia.
Spermatogenesis, occurs in the wall of the seminiferous tubules, with stem cells at the periphery of the tube and the spermatozoa at the lumen of the tube.
Go through mitosis with one offspring going on to differentiate into a sperm cell and the other giving rise to the next generation of sperm.
ohhh....
Meiosis starts with a cell called a primary spermatocyte. At the end of the first meiotic division, a haploid cell is produced called a secondary spermatocyte. This cell is haploid and must go through another meiotic cell division.
The cell produced at the end of meiosis is called a spermatid and when it reaches the lumen of the tubule and grows a flagellum, it is called a sperm cell.
lets move on to Meiosis
Stem cells are deposited during gestation and are present at birth through the beginning of adolescence, but in an inactive state.
During adolescence, gonadotropic hormones from the anterior pituitary cause the activation of these cells and the production of viable sperm. This continues into old age.
wow you're good, but let me finish it
Nice! We successfully recapped the process of spermatogenesis.
You're right let's take a short break before we procees to oogenesis.
Good job to us! and look we already took 2hrs studying.
After discussing about spermatogenesis.The two decided to take a 15 minutes break
