The process in which the spermatogonia that are located in the base portion of the germinal epithelium and differentiate it into a sperm is called spermatogenesis. The spermatid is an immature sex cell that is from a spermatocyte and after it had gone meiosis it will transform into a new mature sperm cell.

Answer:

The correct answer is meiosis takes place, making the sperm cell haploid.

Step-by-step explanation:

From secondary spermatocytes, the formation of haploid male gamete, that is, spermatid takes place. Its formation takes place by the procedure of meiosis, and therefore, it comprises half of the genetic substance as found in in the primary spermatocyte.

In the beginning, spermatid is a round, immotile cell that distinguishes and turns motile and unique by the procedure is known as spermiogenesis.
