The correct Answer is:
To determine how many structures are haploid among the given options (spermatogonia, spermatozoa, spermatids, primary spermatocyte, secondary spermatocyte), we will analyze each structure step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Spermatogonia**: - These are the initial germ cells in the male reproductive system. - They are diploid, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes (46 chromosomes, or 23 pairs). - **Conclusion**: Spermatogonia are not haploid. 2. **Spermatozoa**: - These are the mature male gametes (sperm cells). - They are haploid, meaning they contain only one set of chromosomes (23 chromosomes). - **Conclusion**: Spermatozoa are haploid. 3. **Spermatids**: - These are the cells that result from the second meiotic division of primary spermatocytes. - They are also haploid, containing one set of chromosomes (23 chromosomes). - **Conclusion**: Spermatids are haploid. 4. **Primary Spermatocyte**: - These are the cells that undergo meiosis to form secondary spermatocytes. - They are diploid, containing two sets of chromosomes (46 chromosomes). - **Conclusion**: Primary spermatocytes are not haploid. 5. **Secondary Spermatocyte**: - These are the cells that result from the first meiotic division of primary spermatocytes. - They are haploid, containing one set of chromosomes (23 chromosomes). - **Conclusion**: Secondary spermatocytes are haploid. ### Summary of Findings: - **Haploid Structures**: - Spermatozoa - Spermatids - Secondary Spermatocytes - **Total Number of Haploid Structures**: 3 ### Final Answer: There are **3 haploid structures**: spermatozoa, spermatids, and secondary spermatocytes.
