Question

The given table shows differences between spermatogenesis and spermiogenesis. Select the incorrect option.

• A. Spermatogenesis- Process of formation of spermatozoon.
  Spermiogenesis- Process of differentiation of spermatozoa from a spermatid.
• B. Spermatogenesis- It changes a diploid structure into a haploid structure.
  Spermiogenesis- It involves the conversion of a haploid structure into another haploid structure.
• C. Spermatogenesis- Growth and divisions occur.
  Spermiogenesis- Divisions and growth are absent.
• D. Spermatogenesis- A spermatogonium forms four spermatozoa.
  Spermiogenesis- A spermatid forms a single spermatozoon.

Answer 1

The correct option is B Spermatogenesis- It changes a diploid structure into a haploid structure.

Spermiogenesis- It involves the conversion of a haploid structure into another haploid structure.
Spermatogenesis involves conversion of a diploid structure (spermatogonia) into haploid structures (spermatozoa). Spermiogenesis changes a haploid structure (spermatid) into another haploid structure (spermatozoon).
