  • Q10

    ALL of the following descriptions are TRUE about SPERMATOGENESIS except.

    The process starts w/ the mitotic division of the stem cells at the base membrane of the tubules.

    It is the process by which haploid spermatozoa develop from germ cells in the seminiferous tubules of the testis.

    Mature spermatozoa are produced and developed in this process.

    The process starts at the Mitotic division and the maturation of the spermatozoa in the Meiotic stages.
