Which of the following statements about human gametogenesis are TRUE? (select all that apply) A primary spermatocyte ultimately gives rise to only a single sperm cell. Secondary oocytes do not divide into haploid cells until fertilization begins. Polar bodies are products of spermatogenesis. Oogenesis halts at the primary oocyte until sexual maturity. Secondary spermatocytes do not divide into haploid cells until fertilization begins. A primary oocyte ultimately gives rise to only a single egg. Spermatogenesis halts at the primary spermatocyte until sexual maturity. Polar bodies of products of oogenesis.

Primary spermatocyte ultimately gives rise to only a single sperm cell: This statement is FALSE. A primary spermatocyte undergoes meiosis I to form two secondary spermatocytes, which then undergo meiosis II to form four haploid spermatids, which eventually mature Show more…

Which statement comparing spermatogenesis and oogenesis is true? During oogenesis, four cells are produced with each sharing equally the cytoplasm from the parent cell. Men, but not women, can produce gametes throughout their adult lives. Spermatogenesis and oogenesis rely upon mitosis to produce gametes. Spermatogenesis, but not oogenesis, is an example of gametogenesis.
