As we learnt in

Sperms -

The spermatids are transformed into spermatozoa (sperms) by the process called spermiogenesis

-

Spermiation -

After spermiogenesis, sperm heads become embedded in the Sertoli cells, and are finally released from the seminiferous tubules by the process called spermiation

-

Spermiogenesis is transformation of spermatids into spermatozoa whereas spermiation is the release of the sperms from sertoli cells into the lumen of seminiferous tubule.

 


Option 1)

In spermiogensis spermatozoa from sertoli cells are released into the cavity of seminiferous tubules , while in spermiation spermatozoa are formed .

This is incorrect.

Option 2)

In spermiogenesis spermatozoa are formed , while in spermiation spermatids are formed .

This is incorrect.

Option 3)

In spermiogensis spermatids are formed , while in spermiation spermatozoa are formed.

This is incorrect.

Option 4)

In spermiogenesis spermatozoa are formed , while in spermiation spermatozoa are released from sertoli cells into the cavity of seminiferous tubules.

This is correct.
