Bio Term meiosis is Two successive nuclear divisions (with corresponding cell divisions) that produce haploid gametes (in animals) or haploid sexual spores (in plants and fungi) having one-half of the genetic material of the original cell. The nuclear and cell division process in diploid eukaryotes that results in four haploid gametes or spores having one member of each original pair of homologous chromosomes only per nucleus.

Bio Term cerebellum is part of the vertebrate hind-brain (rhombencephalon) located dorsally; it is responsible for unconscious coordination of movement and balance.

Bio Term organogenesis is An early period of rapid embryonic development in which the organs take form from the primary germ layers.

Bio Term Expression vector is A cloning vector designed so that a foreign gene inserted into the vector will be expressed in the host organism. The inserted DNA is often placed under the control of a strong, regulatable promoter (e.g. the lacZ or araBAD promoter) so that expression of the gene product will only occur when desired.
