The following image shows a diagram of spermatogenesis, the process by which male gametes, known as sperm, are created. How is the process different from oogenesis?
A - The result of spermatogenesis is only one gamete, while the result of oogenesis is four gametes.
B - Spermatogenesis is the production of gametes through mitosis, while oogenesis is the production of gametes through meiosis.
C - The result of oogenesis is only one gamete, while the result of spermatogenesis is four gametes
D - Oogenesis is the production of gametes through mitosis, while spermatogenesis is the production of gametes through meiosis.
Answer: C - The result of oogenesis is only one gamete, while the result of spermatogenesis is four gametes
The chromosomes are divided evenly into two daughter cells but the cytoplasm isn't. The secondary oocyte is divided again, unevenly resulting in only one usable oocyte.
