Statement I: | The release of sperms from the seminiferous tubules is called spermiation. |
Statement II: | Spermiogenesis is the process of formation of sperms from spermatogonia. |

(b) | Differentiation of gamete occurs after the completion of meiosis. |
(c) | Meiosis occurs continuously in a mitotically dividing stem cell population. |
(d) | It is controlled by the Luteinising hormone (LH) and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) secreted by the anterior pituitary. |
(e) | It is initiated at puberty. |
