Spermatogenesis produces four functioning gametes, and oogenesis produces one large gamete with three polar bodies. Statement A is correct. In spermatogenesis, all the four gametes are functional whereas in oogenesis only one large gamete serves as an ovum while other 3 degenerate and they are termed as polar bodies. During oogenesis, gamete production i.e. ovum production doesn't occur like spermatogenesis . During oogenesis, there arrives a stage when gamete production is halted at diplotene/diakinesis stage of meiosis - I and this is known as first meiotic arrest. During this process a polar body is generated. Thenafter, at the time of puberty meiosis resumes, but it is again arrested at meiosis -II stage. This is known as second meiotic arrest. This process is completed only when the sperm arrives and produces another polar body.
