what does ts of testis look like under a microscope?
Answers
The relative size of testes is often influenced by mating systems. Testicular size as a proportion of body weight varies widely. In the mammalian kingdom, there is a tendency for testicular size to correspond with multiple mates (e.g., harems, polygamy). Production of testicular output sperm and spermatic fluid is also larger in polygamous animals, possibly a spermatogenic competition for survival. The testes of the right whale are likely to be the largest of any animal, each weighing around 500 kg (1,100 lb).

The transverse section of testis shows a large number of seminiferous tubules under low magnification.
Also, the spaces between the seminiferous tubules are found to contain blood and special cells called Interstitial cells or Leydig cells are observed.
The different stages of gamete development can be observed.
They are:
Germinal epithelium
Spermatogonial cells
Primary spermatocytes
Secondary spermatocytes
Spermatids
Spermatozoa
