Question

Identify the correct option (A), (B), (C), (D) with respect to spermatogenesis.

• A. FSH, Leydig cells, Sertoli cells, Spermiogenesis
• B. ICSH, Interstitial cells, Leydig cells, spermiogenesis.
• C. FSH, Sertoli cells, Leydig cells, spermatogenesis.
• D. ICSH, Leydig cells, Sertoli cells, spermatogenesis.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The correct option with respect to spermatogenesis is the combination of hormonal and cellular components that facilitate the production and maturation of sperm cells. Let's break down each component of the identified correct option:

• FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone): This hormone stimulates the Sertoli cells, which are essential for nurturing the developing sperm cells.
• Leydig Cells: These cells, located in the testes, produce testosterone in response to stimulation by Luteinizing Hormone (LH). Testosterone is crucial for the progression of spermatogenesis.
• Sertoli Cells: They provide the necessary support, nourishment, and regulatory signals to the developing sperm cells through their different stages in the seminiferous tubules.
• Spermiogenesis: This is the final stage of spermatogenesis, where spermatids undergo morphological changes to become mature spermatozoa.

These components and processes collaborate to successfully carry out spermatogenesis, ensuring the proper development and maturation of viable sperm. Thus, the correct option is FSH, Leydig cells, Sertoli cells, Spermiogenesis.

Answer 2

Role of Hormones and Cells in Spermatogenesis:

• FSH (Follicle-stimulating hormone) acts on the Sertoli cells to promote spermatogenesis (the production of sperm).
• Leydig cells are responsible for producing testosterone, which supports the process of spermatogenesis.
• Spermiogenesis is the final stage of spermatogenesis where spermatids mature into sperm.

Thus, the correct answer is (1) FSH, Leydig cells, Sertoli cells, spermiogenesis.
