Draw a labelled diagram of the sectional view of a human seminiferous tubule (six parts to be labelled)



1. Spermatozoa: It is the male sex cell that fertilises with ovu, to form a zygote.


2. Spermatid: It is a haploid male gamete formed by the division of secondary spermatocyte.


3. Secondary spermatocyte: These are haploid (n) cells formed by the meiotic division of primary spermatocytes.


4. Primary Spermatocyte: These are diploid (2n) cells which by meiotic division give rise to secondary spermatocytes.


5. Sertoli cell: These cells are present in the seminiferous tubules and helps in the nourishment of the spermatozoa.


6. Spermatogonium: It is an undifferentiated male germ cell it undergoes maturation to form mature spermatozoa.
