Solution

The correct option is B Spermiogenesis
Spermiogenesis is the process of maturation of spermatids into the spermatozoa. The spermatids are more of a circular structure which contains the nucleus, Golgi body, and the mitochondria.
Spermatogenesis is the process of formation of spermatids from the primordial germ cells.
Spermiation is the release of mature spermatids from the Sertoli cells.
Oogenesis is the process of formation of female gamete ovum.
So, the correct option is 'Spermiogenesis'
