Answer AND Explanation:

Gametogenesis is the formation of gametes. Formation of sperms also called spermatogenesis takes place in the testes while formation of eggs also called oogenesis takes place in the ovary. Oogenesis in females begins before birth, however maturation of the eggs take a very long time and is only complete after fertilization. In males sperm formation only occurs after puberty.
