Question

Which of the following cells during gametogenesis is normally diploid?

• A. Secondary polar body
• B. Primary polar body
• C. Spermatid
• D. Spermatogonia

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Spermatogonia

In male immature germ cells are produced from the testis. At puberty of male, this immature germ cell is converted into mature cells. Those mature cells are called as sperms. This process in the male is known as spermatogenesis. Spermatogonia are diploid cells which can undergo mitotic division.
Spermatid is the haploid male gamete that results from the division of secondary spermatocytes.
Polar bodies form because the egg cell (oocyte) does not divide evenly. The cell with more cytoplasm becomes a mature ovum while the polar body usually dissolves.
