Spermatids are changed into spermatozoa through
A
Spermiogenesis
B
Spermiation
C
Spermatogenesis
D
Spermatosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct option is ‘Spermiogenesis’

Detailed explanation-2: -Haploid round spermatids undergo a remarkable transformation during spermiogenesis. The nucleus polarizes to one side of the cell as the nucleus condenses and elongates, and the microtubule-based manchette sculpts the nucleus into its species-specific head shape.

Detailed explanation-3: -The spermatids are transformed into spermatozoa (sperm) by the process of spermiogenesis. These develop into mature spermatozoa, also known as sperm cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Spermatids undergo a dramatic change in form during spermiogenesis-into the streamline spermatozoa adapted for fertilization. Spermiogenesis involves nuclear condensation, formation of the acrosomal cap, and development of a tail.
