(a)

Summary Introduction

To draw:

Four rounds of mitosis of the stem cell.

Concept introduction:

Spermatogenesis is the process where sperm cells are produced through the meiosis of the spermatogonium. Stem cells are the undifferentiated cells which can give rise to every type of cell it is found with and in the process it also gives rise to another stem cell.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To draw:

Single mitosis followed by meiosis of a spermatogonium.

Concept introduction:

Spermatogenesis is the process where sperm cells are produced through the meiosis of the spermatogonium. Stem cells are the undifferentiated cells which can give rise to every type of cell it is found with and in the process it also gives rise to another stem cell.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

What would happen if the stem cell divides like the spermatogonium.

Concept introduction:

Spermatogenesis is the process where sperm cells are produced through the meiosis of the spermatogonium. Stem cells are the undifferentiated cells which can give rise to every type of cell it is found with and in the process it also gives rise to another stem cell.
