  1. spermatocyte

    A spermatocyte is a male germ cell that is involved in sexual reproduction. It undergoes meiosis (a type of cell division) to form sperm cells. They are the cells from which spermatozoa (sperm cells) are developed, making them an essential component of male reproduction. There are two different stages of spermatocytes during the development process, denoted as primary and secondary spermatocytes. Primary spermatocytes undergo the first division of meiosis to form secondary spermatocytes which eventually develop into mature sperm cells.
