Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: The release of sperms into the seminiferous tubules is called spermiation.
Statement II: Spermiogenesis is the process of formation of sperms from spermatogonia.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

• A. Both statement I and Statement II are correct
• B. Both statement I and Statement II are incorrect
• C. Statement I is correct but statement II is incorrect
• D. Statement I is incorrect but statement II is correct

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Both statement I and Statement II are incorrect

Answer 2

Spermiogenesis is the process of transformation of spermatids to spermatozoa.
Spermatids undergo morphological changes and transform into sperms.
Spermiation is the process of release of sperms from seminiferous tubules, which remain embedded in the Sertoli cells after spermiogenesis.
Therefore, the correct option is (B) : Both statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
