Gametogenesis in Humans (2)

Similarities of spermatogenesis and oogenesis (1)

Both are the processes of gametogenesis that take place in the reproductive organs

Similarities of spermatogenesis and oogenesis (2)

Produce gametes that are haploid which are involved in fertilisation

Spermatogenesis(1)

It takes place in the testis

Spermatogenesis(2)

Spermatogonium (diploid) produces four sperms (haploid) after meiosis

Spermatogenesis(3)

Sperms are smaller and made up of the midpiece, head and tail

Spermatogenesis(4)

After meiosis I, two secondary spermatocytes are produced

Spermatogenesis (5)

Meiosis is completed

Spermatogenesis (6)

Spermatids undergo differentiation to become sperms

Spermatogenesis(7)

The production of sperm is continuous from puberty until old age

Spermatogenesis(8)

Millions of sperms are formed every day
