Detailed explanation-1: -Gametogenesis is the production of gametes from haploid precursor cells. In animals and higher plants, two morphologically distinct types of gametes are produced (male and female) via distinct differentiation programs. Animals produce a tissue that is dedicated to forming gametes, called the germ line.
Detailed explanation-2: -Gametogenesis refers to the process of gamete production – oogenesis in the ovarian follicles and spermatogenesis in the testicular seminiferous tubules. From: Reference Module in Biomedical Sciences, 2021.
Detailed explanation-3: -The process of gamete production is known as gametogenesis. It is a process by which diploid or haploid cells undergo cell division and produce haploid gametes. Gametogenesis can be further divided into two types.
Detailed explanation-4: -Spermatogenesis. The process of production of sperms or male gametes is called spermatogenesis and the maturation of sperms into motile forms is called spermiogenesis. Ovulation is the release of the egg or the female gamete from the ovaries, while oogenesis is the production of egg cells.
