Solution

The correct option is D Spermiogenesis
Meiosis is the type of cell division in which the germial cells divide meiotically to form four haploid gametes.
The process by which the mature sperms are released from Sertoli cells is called as spermiation.
The process in which spermatozoa are produced from the male germ cells is called as spermatogenesis.
The final stage of spermatogenesis, where there is maturation of spermatids into mature, mobile spermatozoa is called as spermiogenesis.
Thus, the correct answer is option E.
