Question

The immature male germ cells undergo division to produce sperms by the process of spermatogenesis. Which of the following sentences is correct regarding this process?

• A. The primodial germ cells always undergo meiotic division.
• B. The primodial germ cells divide only by mitotic division.
• C. Secondary spermatocytes undergo second meiotic division only.
• D. Both B and C

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Both B and C

The primordial germ cells divide by mitotic division to increase in the number and mature as spermatogonium which divides to form primary spermatocytes. The primary spermatocytes divide meiotically to form the secondary spermatids which further divide to from the spermatids which mature to form the sperms.

Thus, the correct answer is option B and C.
