How many spermatozoa will be formed from 100 primary spermatocytes?

Options

  1. A200
  2. B400
  3. C600
  4. D800

Correct answer

B. 400

Step-by-step solution

One primary spermatocyte undergoes meiosis I to produce two secondary spermatocytes. Each secondary spermatocyte undergoes meiosis II to produce two spermatids. Thus, a single primary spermatocyte produces four spermatids. Each spermatid differentiates into one spermatozoon through spermiogenesis. Therefore, one primary spermatocyte yields four spermatozoa. For 100 primary spermatocytes, the number of spermatozoa formed is 100 4 = 400 . Answer: 400
