The number of spermatid produced from primary spermatocyte is?

Correct answer: D. 4

  • A. 1
  • B. 2
  • C. 3
  • D. 4

Explanation

During spermatogenesis, which is the process of sperm cell development, a primary spermatocyte undergoes two rounds of cell division to produce four haploid cells called spermatids. This process ensures that the resulting sperm cells (spermatozoa) have half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. The spermatids then undergo further maturation to become mature sperm cells.
