    The document discusses the processes of gametogenesis and spermatogenesis and oogenesis. It describes the formation of germ cells and somatic cells, and the processes by which male and female gametes are formed through mitosis and meiosis, including the development of sperm in the testes and eggs in the ovarian follicles.

    Cell types (higher form of organisms): SPERMATOGENESIS


    1. Germ Cell - process by which male gametes are formed
    - give rise to gametes (eggs & sperm) - occurs in the seminiferous tubules in the testes
    - Primordial Germ Cell - develops in association with specialized somatic cells
    ~ divides mitotically producing: - Testis specimens: Grasshopper (Caelifera sp.); Frog (Anura sp.);
     Spermatogonia for males Chick (Gallus gallus); Mouse (Mus musculus)
     Oogonia for females Fuelgen Method
    ~ products are considered Stem Cell - for Grasshopper
     undifferentiated cells that divide mitotically - useful for studying chromosomes & nuclear structure
    producing daughter cells that (1) will remain as - cytoplasmic components are stained yellow or brown
    s.c. or (2) will become differentiated Hematoxylin & Eosin
     this nature allow the ‘-gonias’ to produce billions - H: blue; for nucleus
    of sperm and eggs over their lifetimes - E: pinkish-orange; acidic components of cell including the
    2. Somatic Cell cytoplasm
    - give rise to all other cell in the body OOGENESIS
    - process by which female gametes (eggs) are formed
    Gametogenesis - occurs in the ovarian follicles of the ovary
    - the first phase in animal sexual reproduction - Eggs are products of Meiosis (haploid condition)
    - major processes involved during this stage: - Polar Body
    1. Cell Proliferation ~ product of MD I; non-functional
    ~ repetitive mitotic division into identical cells by primitive ~ smaller than eggs due to unequal cytokinesis - advantage in
    g.c. or primordial sex cells providing the ovum with greater amount of cytoplasm & stored
    2. Cell Growth food
    ~ cessation of mitosis due to acquisition of raw materials for ~ it may or may not undergo MD II
    protoplasm synthesis - After Meiosis, Ootid quickly differentiates into the mature egg cell
    3. Cell Maturation or ovum and would not undergo transformation
    ~ 2 successive mitotic division & a chromosomal division - Ovary
    occurs causing a chromosome number reduction by one half ~ covered by Germinal Epithelium (consists of ovarian tissue &
    - process of the formation of sex cells for both gametes which not future egg cells)
    undergo transformation to become specialized cells ~ Mesovarium: mesentery that attached the ovary to the body
    Sperm Egg wall & is route for blood vessels to & from the ovary
    Formation Spermatogenesis Oogenesis ~ consist of (1) central medulla = consists of CT & BV &
    Transformation lose of cytoplasm and don’t transform but continuous with mesovarium & (2) peripheral cortex = business part
    forms a flagellum increase in size due - ovary specimens: Frog (Anura sp.); Cat (Felis catus); Human
    to large amount of (Homo sapiens)
