Solution

Spermatogenesis:

  1. Spermatogenesis is the process by which haploid spermatozoa are produced from germ cells in the seminiferous tubules of the testis.
  2. Spermatozoa (sperm) are male sex cells that contain the genetic material of a man.

Secondary spermatocytes:

  1. Secondary spermatocytes are haploid (N) cells with half the number of chromosomes as primary spermatocytes.
  2. Each secondary spermatocyte produces two spermatids.
