Objectives
At the end of the lecture students should be able to,
1. outline the process of sexual reproduction
2. revise the steps in meiosis
3. state the importance of ‘independent assortment’ and ‘homologous
recombination’
4. state the location of gametogenesis in male and female
5. outline the process of spermatogenesis
6. state the steps in spermiogenesis
7. illustrate the structure of a mature sperm
8. outline the process of oogenesis and folliculogenesis
9. illustrate the structure of a mature (Graafian) follicle
10. state the meaning of the term ‘ovulation’
11. compare and contrast the processes of spermatogenesis and
oogenesis

Meiosis-I Meiosis-II
• Separates • Splits the sister
homologous chromatids in each
chromosomes chromosome
• End result - two • End result - 4 haploid
haploid cells (23 (n) cells [2 from each
chromosomes, n) cell produced in meiosis-I]
Meiosis-I – Reduction division

•`
Diploid (2n) parent cell; Pairing Homologous chromosome Separation of 2 2 haploid (n)
of homologous chromosomes pairs arranged along the chromosomes in the daughter cells
and cross-over equatorial plane homologous pairs
Random alignment

The likelihood that any two gametes from an individual will contain exactly the same set of
chromosomes is 1 in 223 (approximately 1 in 8 million)

Oogenesis and follicular development
Primordial follicle
• Primordial follicle containing the primary oocyte continues
to be in resting stage from birth till puberty
After puberty,
• Each month, 15 to 20 follicle begins to develop forming
Primary follicle Secondary / Antral follicle
• Only one of the developing secondary follicles reach full
maturity forming a Dominant follicle which will become a
Tertiary/ Pre-ovulatory/ Graafian follicle
Primary oocyte
1. Peritoneal cavity
2. Follicular fluid 1. Secondary oocyte in
3. Follicular cells with metaphase-II
secondary oocyte 2. Dividing 1st polar body
Rupture of the mature follicle
release the secondary oocyte
into the abdomino-pelvic
cavity
- Ovulation

After puberty with

e.g.
Monosomy X:
Turner
