first polar body
polar body
One primary oocyte divides by meiosis and produces one polar body and one secondary oocyte. The polar body goes on to produce two more polar bodies, and the secondary oocyte divides into one polar body and one ovum. Therefore, one cell is produced from one primary oocyte.
Secondary spermatocyte
The fallopian tubes also knows as the uterine tubes transport the secondary oocyte or the fertilized egg to the uterus.
A primary follicle consists of a primary oocyte surrounded by a single layer of enlarged cuboidal epithelium. Recall that previously, there was a primary oocyte in a primordial follicle surrounded by a thinner single layer of squamous follicular cells.

Secondary spermatocyte
The oocyte (immature ovum or egg). It produces a secondary oocyte (large, lots of cytoplasm) and a polar body (small, does not survive).
one cell is produced from one primary oocyte.
One cell is produced from one primary oocyte. Therefore 10 eggs can be potentially produced from 10 primary oocytes.
ovum is the product after the secondary oocyte fuses with sperm
Primordial, secondary, tertiary, and antral are the basic steps in a developing oocyte
Any oogonia that has arrested itself in meiosis I prophase-dipotene on the onset of OMI (oocye maturation inhibition) hormone in the 3rd month of pregnancy and there after is a primary oocyte. On the urge of Leutinizing hormone which induces the pre-ovulatory phase, the primary oocyte completes meiosis I and arrests itself in meiosis II metaphase, which would only be completed if fertilization occurs, otherwise it will degenrate in 24 hours. On the completion of meiosis I, a SECONDARY oocyte and forst polar body is going to be formed.
Gonads are testes and ovaries. Testes produce spermatozoa by spermatogenesis and ovaries produce ova by oogenesis. Spermatozoa are produced via mitosis, producing diploid primary spermatocytes, then meiosis I which produces haploid secondary spermatocytes, which are converted to spermatids by meiosis II. Spermatids become spermatozoa. For the inchoate ovum, a diploid primary oocyte forms, followed meiotically by a haploid secondary oocyte. Ovulation occurs and the secondary oocyte only becomes a true ovum after syngamy. During the process, primary polar bodies become secondary polar bodies and are all rejected.

The progressive changes going on with the primordial germ cell resulting its differentiation into primary oocyte; secondary oocyte; spermati and finally spermatozoa is called metamorphosis in spermatogenasis. Javeed Farooqi M.sc
