The given table shows differences between spermato-genesis and spermiogenesis. Select the incorrect option.

A

`{:("Spermatogenesis","Spermiogenesis"),("Process of formation of spermatozoa","Process of differentiation of spermatozoon from a spermatid".):}`

B

`{:("Spermatogenesis","Spermiogenesis"),("It changes a haploid structure into another haploid structure","It involves conversion of a diploid structure into haploid structure."):}`

C

`{:("Spermatogenesis","Spermiogenesis"),("Growth and divisions occur.","Divisions and growth are absent."):}`

D

`{:("Spermatogenesis","Spermiogenesis"),("A spermatogonium forms four spermatozoa","A spermatid forms a single spermatozoon."):}`

The correct Answer is:
To determine the incorrect option from the table showing differences between spermatogenesis and spermiogenesis, we will analyze each option based on the definitions and processes involved in both terms. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definitions**: - **Spermatogenesis**: This is the process of producing sperm cells (spermatozoa) from spermatogonia through mitosis and meiosis. - **Spermiogenesis**: This is the process of maturation and differentiation of spermatids into mature spermatozoa. 2. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Option A**: States that spermatogenesis is the process of formation of spermatozoa and spermiogenesis is the differentiation of spermatids into spermatozoa. This is correct. - **Option B**: Claims that spermatogenesis changes a haploid structure to another haploid structure. This is incorrect because spermatogenesis starts with diploid spermatogonia and ends with haploid spermatozoa. - **Option C**: States that growth and division occur in spermatogenesis but not in spermiogenesis. This is partially correct; while division occurs in spermatogenesis, spermiogenesis does involve some metabolic activities, but it does not include cell division. - **Option D**: States that one spermatogonium forms four spermatozoa. This is misleading because not every spermatogonium results in four spermatozoa; it depends on the differentiation process. - **Option E**: States that spermatids form a single spermatozoon. This is correct. 3. **Identify the Incorrect Option**: - The incorrect option is **Option B** because it misrepresents the nature of spermatogenesis, which starts with diploid cells and ends with haploid spermatozoa. ### Conclusion: The incorrect option from the table is **Option B**. ---
