Wall of each seminiferous tubules is formed of single layered germinal epithelium. Majority of cells in this epithelium are cuboidal called male germ cells (also called spermatogonia). At certain places there present tall Sertoli or substentacular cells, which functions as nurse cells for differentiating spermatozoa
