Differentiate between spermatogenesis and oogenesis?with diagram?
Answers
Spermatogenesis
➡Spermatogonium first develops from the germinal epithelial lining of the seminiferous tubules which is diploid stem-cell having totipotency i.e. self-renewing capacity.
➡Spermatogonium then undergoes mitosis cell division and differentiates into primary spermatocytes is the process refers to “Spermatocytogenesis”.
➡Then primary spermatocytes undergo meiosis cell division-1 and form two secondary spermatocytes.
Ogenesis
➡Oogonium first develops from the germinal epithelium overlying the ovary which is diploid stem-cell also having a self-renewing capacity.
➡Oogonium then undergoes mitosis cell division and differentiates into primary oocytes.
➡Secondary oocytes further undergo meiosis cell division-2 which arrest at metaphase stage forms ootid.

Difference between spermatogenesis and oogenesis are :-
Spermatogenesis -
- Spermatogonia produce primary sperm atocyte through mytosis .
- It takes about 6 weeks to differentiate spermatid into mature spermatozoa .
Oogenesis -
- Oogenesis is the formation of eggs in females . Initial stages of oogenesis start during early embryonic stages and completes after puberty .
- The secondary oocyte is released from the ovary at the ovulation .
hope it helps you .
