Solution

The correct option is B

Sertoli Cells


Sertoli cells keep the germ cells that start the process healthy and nourished. They also function at the end of spermatogenesis by absorbing extra cytoplasm from newly created spermatozoa, just prior to their release into the lumen of the seminiferous tubule.
