Sperm are produced within the testes by the process of?

Spermatogenesis- takes place in the seminiferous tubule of the testesIt is the form of gametogenesis taking place in males and utilises the two forms of nuclear division to produce a haploid gamete.A cell from the germinal epithelium (2n) divides by mitosis to form the spermatagonia (2n), which then develops into the primary spermatocyte (2n). The primary spermatocyte divides by meiosis 1 to form the secondary spermatocyte (n), which divides by meiosis 2 to become the spermatid (n). This spermatid develops and matures in the epididymis to form the final spermatazoon (or just sperm)Germinal epithelium --> Spermatagonia --> Primary spermatocyte --> Secondary spermatocyte --> Spermatid --> Spermatazoon


Meiosis in the male mammals result in the formation of?

The primary spermatocyte is diploid(2n) and after first meiotic division it will produce 2 haploid(n) secondary spermatocyte and these in turn after second meiotic division will produce 2 more haploid secondary spermatocyte. Therefore by the end of Meiosis one will have 4 haploid secondary spermatocyte or spermatids.


If the body cells of humans contain 46 chromosomes a single sperm cell should have?

A primary spermatocyte with 46 chromosomes will undergo meiosis and yield four spermatids with 23 chromosomes. A primary spermatocyte undergoes meiosis I two haploid secondary spermatocytes are produced.
