One way in which gametogenesis differs between the two sexes is that in spermatogenesis,
A)the mature gametes lack mobility.

C)chromosome number is halved only after the second meiotic division.
D)the germ cells are diploid.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In spermatogenesis, one diploid germ cell undergoes two meiotic divisions to produce four viable haploid gametes (spermatozoa). This is different from oogenesis, where one diploid germ cell produces one viable haploid gamete (ovum) through meiosis. Additionally, in spermatogenesis, chromosome number is halved during the first meiotic division, whereas in oogenesis, it is halved during the second meiotic division.
