Solution

To determine the stages during which cells are haploid in the context of spermatogenesis, we first need to understand the definitions of the different stages mentioned:

  1. Spermatogonium: This is the diploid (2n) stem cell that undergoes mitosis to produce primary spermatocytes.

  2. Primary Spermatocyte: These are diploid (2n) cells that undergo meiosis I to form secondary spermatocytes.

  3. Secondary Spermatocyte: These cells are haploid (n) as a result of meiosis I and will undergo meiosis II.

  4. Spermatid: These are also haploid (n) cells that result from the second meiotic division of secondary spermatocytes and will eventually mature into spermatozoa.

  5. Spermatozoon: This is the mature haploid (n) sperm cell.

Conclusion

In summary, the cells that are haploid include:

  • Secondary Spermatocytes
  • Spermatids
  • Spermatozoons

Therefore, the correct answers to the question are secondary spermatocytes, spermatids, and spermatozoons.
