In vertebrate animals, spermatogenesis and oogenesis differ, in that
1.) Cytokinesis is unequal in oogenesis whereas it i equal in spermatogenesis
2.) spermatogenesis is not completed until after fertilization occurs, but oogenesis is completed by the time a girl is born
3.) Oogenesis produces four haploid cells, whereas spermatogenesis produces only one functional spermatozoon
4.) Oogensis ends at menopause. Whereas spermatogenesis is finished before birth
5.) Oogensis begins at the onset of sexual maturity whereas spermatogenesis happens in embryonic development
