Generation of the male gamete; specialised haploid cells produced by meiosis and along with a female gamete takes part in sexual reproduction. A developmental process by which a progressive change in the state of some part of an organism specifically contributes to its ability to form offspring. Formation of a single follicular epithelium around the germ-line derived cells of a cyst formed in the male gonad. The process by which the anatomical structures of a follicular epithelium are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The generation and maintenance of gametes in a multicellular organism. A gamete is a haploid reproductive cell. Formation of a single follicular epithelium around the germ-line derived cells of a cyst. The process of formation of spermatozoa, including spermatocytogenesis and spermiogenesis. The biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an anatomical structure from an initial condition to its mature state. This process begins with the formation of the structure and ends with the mature structure, whatever form that may be including its natural destruction. An anatomical structure is any biological entity that occupies space and is distinguished from its surroundings. Anatomical structures can be macroscopic such as a carpel, or microscopic such as an acrosome.
