  2. Spermatocyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatocyte

    The primary spermatocytes within the adluminal compartment will continue on to meiosis I and divide into two daughters cells, known as secondary spermatocytes, a process which takes 24 days to complete. Each secondary spermatocyte will form two spermatids after meiosis II. [1]

  3. Spermatogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatogenesis

    The process of spermatogenesis as the cells progress from primary spermatocytes, to secondary spermatocytes, to spermatids, to Sperm Cycle of the seminiferous epithelium of the testis Spermatocytogenesis is the male form of gametocytogenesis and results in the formation of spermatocytes possessing half the normal complement of genetic material.

  4. Spermiogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermiogenesis

    Complete diagram of a human spermatozoon Schematic of subcellular structures in a murine spermatid being formed showing the formation of the residual body and acrosomal cap. The process of spermiogenesis is traditionally divided into four stages: the Golgi phase, the cap phase, formation of the tail, and the maturation stage.

  5. Spermatogonium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatogonium

    Spermatogenesis is the process in which sperm cells are produced and formed into mature spermatozoa from spermatogonia. Males mature spermatozoa (sperm) are produced to later join with a female oocyte (egg) to create offspring. Throughout the process of spermatogenesis, there are many different parts of the male anatomy, accessory organs, and ...

  6. Spermatidogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatidogenesis

    Cross section of the epithelium of a seminiferous tubule showing various stages of spermatocyte development Scheme showing analogies in the process of maturation of the ovum and the development of the spermatids (young spermatozoa). Spermatidogenesis is the creation of spermatids from secondary spermatocytes during spermatogenesis.

  7. Spermatid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatid

    The spermatid is the haploid male gametid that results from division of secondary spermatocytes. As a result of meiosis, each spermatid contains only half of the genetic material present in the original primary spermatocyte. Spermatids are connected by cytoplasmic material and have superfluous cytoplasmic material around their nuclei.

  8. Spermatocytogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatocytogenesis

    Schematic diagram of Spermatocytogenesis. Spermatocytogenesis is the male form of gametocytogenesis and involves stem cells dividing to replace themselves and to produce a population of cells destined to become mature sperm.

  9. Gametocyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gametocyte

    Scheme showing analogies in the process of maturation of the ovum and the development of the spermatids. A gametocyte is a eukaryotic germ cell that divides by mitosis into other gametocytes or by meiosis into gametids during gametogenesis. Male gametocytes are called spermatocytes, and female gametocytes are called oocytes.
