During spermatogenesis, the secondary spermatocyte develops into which of the following ?

  • A.Spermatids
  • B.Primary spermatocytes
  • C.Spermatogomia
  • D.Spermatozoa

Answer: A

In spermatogenesis a primary spermatocyte divides by the first meiotic division into two secondary spermatocytes, and each secondary spermatocyte divides in the second meiotic division into two spermatids. The spermatids then mature into spermatozoa by spermiogenesis. So the secondary spermatocyte gives rise to spermatids, not to primary spermatocytes, spermatogonia or spermatozoa directly.
