Hello everyone here we have a question saying spermatozoa genesis and O genesis are two types of comida genesis in which a blank gamete cell produces blank sperm and egg cells. And spermatozoa genesis. A deploy spermatozoa Jonah goes through mitosis until they begin to develop into gammaS and one develops into a primary spermatozoa site that will go through the first biotic division to form two half wits secondary sperm out of sites. So we have a deployed sperm attic Germania forming two half would secondary sperm oocytes and an O genesis deployed ojani um goes through my apoptosis until one develops into a primary oocyte which will develop which will begin the first biotic division and once it finishes this division it develops into a follicle giving rise to a halfway secondary oocyte. So in O genesis we have a deployed oh Jeannie um going through mitosis and forming a halfway secondary oocyte. So in both of these we start with a deployed gambling sale producing halfwit sperm and egg cells. So our answer is c deployed half Lloyd. Thank you for watching. Bye.
