Ultrastructure and Histochemistry of the Nucleus During Male Meiotic Prophase

  • Chapter
The Human Testis

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 10))

Abstract

The life of the human first spermatocyte lasts about 23 days (1). During this period predetermination of meiosis, synapsis, chiasmata formation and segregation of homologues occurs; it is also possible that some abnormal phenomena such as meiotic non-disjunction occur during this time.
