Production of the mature sperm cells have 4 step process beginning at puberty and throughout the male's lifetime. Spermiogenesis is the final process for production of sperm where the spermatids mature into motile spermatozoa. For humans, the spermatogenesis takes 74 days to 120 days and if the transport on the ductal system is included it would take 3 months.

Answer: Spermiogenesis

The final stage of spermatogenesis or production of sperm is called spermiogenesis. It is the stage where spermatids differentiate into mature, motile spermatozoa. 

This composed of four stages: first is the golgi phase where the spermatids start to form a head and its DNA packaging are condensed. Second, the formation of acrosomal cap in cap phase. Third phase is Acrosomal phase, one of the centrioles of the spermatid elongates and become tail and the fourth phase is maturation phase where the remaining cytoplasm and organelles are removed.

What type of stimulus is required for an action potential to be generated? What type of stimulus is required for an action poten
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

A threshold level depolarization.

Explanation:

In a neuron, the action potential threshold is known as the point of depolarization where the neuron fires, when the neuron reaches a point, it will fire and if it does not reach the point of depolarization, it will not fire and it helps to transmit the information to another neuron.

A neuron transmits the information with the help of electric impulses which are sent through its axon. When a neuron in an inactive phase, more +ve charged ions recline outside the axon membrane. In the process of stimulation, the axon membrane admits more Na+ ions and providing the neuron more +ve charge.
