Solution

The correct option is B 4
The process of formation of sperms, that lies in the seminiferous tubules of the testes is called as spermatogenesis. In this process, primary spermatocytes produces two equal, haploid cells, called as secondary spermatocytes by first meiotic division. The secondary spermatocytes then produce four equal, haploid spermatids by second meiosis. By the process of spermiogenesis, four spermatids are transformed into spermatozoa. After spermiogenesis, mature sperms are finally released from the seminiferous tubules by the process called as spermiation.
So, the correct answer is option B.
