Q

Spermatogenesis
Capacitation

A

Puberty - spermatogonia (1) –> (mitotic) primary spermatocyte (16)(meiosis 1) (2n)–> secondary spermatocyte(n) –> (mieosis 2) spermatid (64-512) –> sperm/ spermatozoa

Independent assortment of maternal and paternal chromosome take place in first miosis division. (Primary to secondary)

Spermatogenesis - spermiogenesis

Spermiogenesis
- Nucleus - head of sperm
- Golgi apparatus - acrosomal cap
Mitochondria - spiral sheath around the middle piece
- centrosome - proximal centriole : sperical in neck. Distal : distal end of middle piece
- cytoplasm - shed as residual bodies of reguard
- cell membrane - covering.

Spermatogenesis - 74>64>60
Capacitation - 7 hrs in female genital track

Q

Oogenesis
Mitochondrial genetic disorders

A

PGC turns into oogonium by 3rd month(mitosis) -> primary oocyte 5-7 month, arrest in deplotene phase(miosis 1 2n) -> puberty -> secondary oocyte (meiosis 2) -> arrest in metaphase -> sperm -> ovum

Most fertile period 3days - 2days before and 1day after ovulation.

Mitochondrial genetic disorders are due to maternal mitochondrial origin.
