Answer:
C
Solution:
Steps involved in Spermatogenesis
| Step 1 | Spermatogonia (2n = 46) are present in the inside wall of seminiferous tubules. Spermatogonium divides mitotically to increase in number. |
| Step 2 | Some spermatogonia (termed as primary spermatocytes) periodically undergo meiosis. A primary spermatocyte completes meiosis-I (reduction division) and gives rise to 2 equal-sized cells called secondary spermatocytes (n = 23). |
| Step 3 | Both secondary spermatocytes undergo meiosis –II (equational division) to produce 2 equal spermatids (n) each. |
| Step 4 | Each spermatid is transformed into spermatozoa (sperms) by the process of spermiogenesis. |
| Step 5 | After spermiogenesis, the head of sperms becomes embedded in the sertoli cells. Sperms are finally released from the seminiferous tubules by the process called spermiation. |
