Summary Introduction
Introduction: Reproductive system (or genital system) is involved in sexual reproduction. The male and female reproductive systems’ function is to propagate the species. Gametogenesis is a process by which male and female gametes are produced. Spermatogenesis and oogenesis are the two types of gametogenesis processes involved in the sexual reproduction of animals.
