Each type A spermatogonia can give rise to:
- Type A spermatogonia, which will continue to replicate.
- Type B spermatogonia, from which a primary spermatocyte will be formed, which will continue its development until it becomes a spermatozoon.
Therefore, from a type A spermatogonia, infinite spermatozoa can be formed.
In contrast, of each type B, only four sperm will be formed at the end of the spermatogenesis process.
