The answer would be SPERMATOGENESIS: formation of male gametes (sperms) by spermatogenesis involves initial stages of mitosis followed by meiosis and a last step of metamorphosis.

Explanation:

Spermatogonial cells of testes undergo mitotic division and cells differentiate to form primary spermatocytes; next step is meiotic division. Spermatids are formed at the end of meiosis. Last step of meiosis is metamorphosis of spermatid to form motile sperm.
