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.
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. The stem cells involved are called spermatogonia and are a specific type of stem cell known as gametogonia.
Sperm Spermiogenesis is the final stage of spermatogenesis , during which the spermatids develop into mature spermatozoa . At the beginning of the stage, the spermatid is a more or less circular cell containing a nucleus , Golgi apparatus , centriole and mitochondria ; by the end of the process, it has radically transformed into an elongated ...
I did the diagram myself based on the one found on the book "Gray's anatomy" 36th edition, Williams & Warwick, 1980; and a diagram found of the review "Formation and organization of the mammalian sperm head" from Kiyotaka Toshimori and Chizuro Ito.

Spermatogenesis as the cells progress from spermatogium, to primary spermatocytes, to secondary spermatocytes, to spermatids and to sperm. Spermatocytes are a type of male gametocyte in animals. They derive from immature germ cells called spermatogonia. They are found in the testis, in a structure known as the seminiferous tubules. [1]
The cells in the epithelium are connected via tight junctions. There are two types of cells in the germinal epithelium. The large Sertoli cells (not dividing) function as supportive cells to the developing sperm. The second cell type is the cells belonging to the spermatogenic cell lineage. These eventually develop into sperm cells ...
Sperm cells cannot divide and have a limited lifespan, but after fusion with egg cells during fertilization, a new organism begins developing, starting as a totipotent zygote. The human sperm cell is haploid, so that its 23 chromosomes can join the 23 chromosomes of the female egg to form a diploid cell with 46 paired chromosomes.
the diagram shows a simple description of a human spermatozoon. the diagram i made myself in adobe ilustrator using the diagram found on the book "Gray's Anatomy ...
