Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -[1] The primary male reproductive organs, the testes, are located inside the scrotum and function to produce sperm cells as well as the primary male hormone, testosterone. As mentioned above, spermatogenesis is the process by which sperm cell production occurs; the germ cells give rise to the haploid spermatozoa.
Detailed explanation-2: -Spermiogenesis is the differentiation stage of spermatids into mature spermatozoa. At this stage, the spermatids go through morphological changes to become more streamlined and compacted. Spermiogenesis is comprised of four phases: (1) Golgi phase, (2) Cap phase, (3) Tail phase, and (4) Maturation phase.
