  2. Spermatogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatogenesis

    Spermatogenesis is the process by which haploid spermatozoa develop from germ cells in the seminiferous tubules of the testicle. This process starts with the mitotic division of the stem cells located close to the basement membrane of the tubules. [ 1 ]

  3. Sperm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sperm

    Sperm cells form during the process known as spermatogenesis, which in amniotes (reptiles and mammals) takes place in the seminiferous tubules of the testicles. [3] This process involves the production of several successive sperm cell precursors, starting with spermatogonia , which differentiate into spermatocytes .

  4. Spermiogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermiogenesis

    Spermiogenesis is the final stage of spermatogenesis, during which the spermatids develop into mature spermatozoa. At the beginning of the stage, the spermatid is a more or less circular cell containing a nucleus , Golgi apparatus , centriole and mitochondria ; by the end of the process, it has radically transformed into an elongated ...

  5. Seminiferous tubule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seminiferous_tubule

    Spermatogenesis, the process for producing spermatozoa, takes place in the seminiferous tubules. During spermatogenesis, the DNA of spermatogenic cells in the seminiferous tubules is subject to damage from such sources as reactive oxygen species. [1] The genomic integrity of spermatogenic cells is protected by DNA repair processes. [2]

  6. Spermatogonium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatogonium

    Spermatogenesis is the process in which sperm cells are produced and formed into mature spermatozoa from spermatogonia. Males mature spermatozoa (sperm) are produced to later join with a female oocyte (egg) to create offspring. Throughout the process of spermatogenesis, there are many different parts of the male anatomy, accessory organs, and ...

  7. Spermatocyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatocyte

    Spermatogenesis as the cells progress from spermatogium, to primary spermatocytes, to secondary spermatocytes, to spermatids and to sperm. Spermatocytes are a type of male gametocyte in animals. They derive from immature germ cells called spermatogonia. They are found in the testis, in a structure known as the seminiferous tubules. [1]

  9. Human reproductive system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_reproductive_system

    In males, this process is known as spermatogenesis and occurs only after puberty in the seminiferous tubules of the testes. The immature spermatozoa or sperm are then sent to the epididymis, where they gain a tail, enabling motility.
