What is true about gametogenesis in both males and females?

A) Primary spermatocytes and primary oocytes contain the diploid number of chromosomes.

B) The haploid number of chromosomes first appears in the gametes.

C) Gametes are formed in special structures called follicles.

D) Meiosis II is completed in all of the gametes that are produced.

Expert Solution

Answer ) (A) Primary Spermatocytes and Primary oocytes contain diploid number of chromosomes.

SPERMATOGENESIS :- Primary spermatocytes are diploid while secondary spermatocytes are haploid.

OOGENESIS :- Primary oocytes are diploid but secondary oocytes are haploid.

# OTHER OPTIONS -

The haploid number of chromosomes are first formed in secondary oocytes then finally gametes (ova,sperms) are formed with haploid chromosomes.
Gametes are not formed in any follicles.
Meiosis 2 is not completed in female oocytes.

In human females, meiosis-II is not completed until fertilisation. Secondary oocyte is arrested in metaphase-II stage until sperm cell contacts plasma membrane of the oocyte and completes meiosis II resulting in release of ovum.

What are the key differences in gametogenesis between females and males? What is the key step in spermatogenesis that allows for unlimited sperm production? This step is not present in oogenesis and therefore only a finite number of eggs could be produced. (0-5pts) Guidelines: You must include in your answer how the processes are similar and how they differ. What would health implications have the finite number of eggs present to the female? What organs are responsible for each gametogenesis?...

GAMETOGENESIS: Which of the following is TRUE of both male and female gametogenesis in humans? Group of answer choices a) Primary spermatocytes and primary oocytes are both diploid (2n) cell types. b) The divisions of meiosis happen completely within the gonads in both sexes. c) Meiosis II is completed after fertilization in both gametes d) Meiosis begins at puberty and continues throughout adulthood e) The first and second meiotic divisions are both equal (producing two cells of the same size)

Males and females were tested about what they would do if they received a $100 bill by mail, addressed to their neighbor, but wrongly delivered to them. Would they return it to their neighbor? Of the 81 males sampled, 63 returned the envelope to their neighbor and of the 142 females sampled, 129 returned the envelope. Does the data indicate that the proportions that returned the envelope are higher for females compared to males at a 5% level of significance?...

Solve the following questions 9. Males and females were asked about what they would do if they received a $100 bill by mail, addressed to their neighbor, but wrongly delivered to them. Would they return it to their neighbor? Of the 100 males sampled, 85 said yes and of the 200 females sampled, 180 yes. Does the data indicate that the percentages that said yes is higher for female than for male? We set the hypothesis as: H0 : p1...

Ticks feed only on blood of vertebrates (both males and females blood-feed) and are generalist in terms of their feeding preferences (would feed equally well on mouse, lizard, bird, fox, etc.). Based on this information ticks would be best considered Basal species Primary consumers Top-predators Decomposers White-footed mouse would be best considered Basal species Intermediate species Top-predator Decomposer
