Solution

The correct option is B Secondary spermatocyte
Primary and secondary spermatocytes are formed through the process of spermatocytogenesis. Primary spermatocytes are diploid (2N) cells. After Meiosis I, two secondary spermatocytes are formed. Secondary spermatocytes are haploid (N) cells that contain half the number of chromosomes.

So, the correct answer is 'Secondary spermatocyte'.
