Spermatogenesis Process

Image
Spermatogenesis is process of forming sperm or spermatozoa. It take place in seminiferous tubule of testis. It starts after the puberty. It starts from the cells of the seminiferous tubule called spermatogonial stem cells. Cells of seminiferous tubule undergoes mitosis to form sperm cell, called Spermatogonial stem cells, then undergo changes to form two primary spermatocyte. Then via meiosis I primary spermatocyte develop into secondary spermatocyte. Secondary spermatocyte are divide into four equal spermatids by meiosis II. The spermatid four are transformed into the mature spermatozoa by the process of spermatogenesis and achieved maturation. It is  called as sperm cells or mature spermatozoa. Spermatogenesis is similar to the process of oogenesis in females. It take place after the puberty and continues till the death of person. It take 70 days to occur spermatogenesis completely. Spermatogenesis take place as Spermatogonium cells – primary spermatocytes – secondary spe...
