Homeostasis is maintaining an equilibrium or balance. Human bodies only function under very specific conditions, so it is important to maintain them through homeostasis. Otherwise, the proper conditions to function will be missing and we won't be able to function at all.
Answer:
It can cause:
-Protein to not function normally
-Genetic Disorders
-Cancer
Explanation:
Any random change in a gene's DNA is likely to result in a protein that does not function normally or may not function at all. Such mutations are likely to be harmful. Harmful mutations may cause genetic disorders or cancer. A genetic disorder is a disease caused by a mutation in one or a few genes.

Answer: Twenty five (25) of the chicks will be black.
Explanation: A cross between two heterozygous chicks (Bl/bl+) will produce four chicks; one will be Bl/Bl, two will be Bl/bl+ while one will be bl+/bl+.
A break down of the phenotypes is as follows:
Genotype ==> Phenotype
Bl/Bl ==> Black
Bl/bl+ ==> intermediate
bl+/bl+ ==> blue.
Since one out of four offsprings (1/4) is black, therefore if the two chicken produce 100 chicks, the number of chicks that will be black is 1/4 x 100 = 25.
