Which part of the male reproductive system produces gametes?
Correct answer: C. Seminiferous tubules
- A. Vas deferens
- B. Malpighian tubule system
- C. Seminiferous tubules
- D. Ejaculatory duct
- E. Testicular Duct System
Explanation
Male gametes are produced in the seminiferous tubules in the testis. Each testis consists of a highly complex duct system called the seminiferous tubules. Which repeated cell division produces spermatogonia, which increases n size and differentiates into primary spermatocytes, which undergo meiotic division to produce secondary spermatocytes and spermatids. Eventually, the spermatids differentiate into mature sperms, which are the male gametes.
