Nonfunctional DNA is actually not a very accurate term to call it. What you are referring to is the space of DNA that until recently, scientists believed did nothing for the cell or body. Recently however, it has been found that there are "Switches" that turn on and off the coding for certain characteristics that are read during protein synthesis.

If complex IV in electron transport chain were nonfunctional could chemiosmosis produce ATP?
i have no idea so don't ask me, OK
Structures which are fully developed in one group of organism but reduced or possibly nonfunctional in a similar group are referred to as?
You may be asking about 'Vestigial' organs.
What checks DNA for error?
DNA fingerprinting
Principle enzyme involved in DNA replication?
DNA Polymerase.
What is the function of DNA helicare in DNA replication?
DNA Helicase unwinds and unzips the DNA. It separates the two strands of DNA so DNA replication can occur.
What happens if DNA pol 1 is nonfunctional in the replicated genome?
Nothing gets added on to the DNA. Pol I is suppose to repair damaged sequences , so if it is nonfunctional, the damage sequences remain causing a mutated gene sequence.
Which term describes as non-coding part of DNA that mau be a fragmented or nonfunctional gene?
mutation
Which do you suppose would be more harmful A mutation that changed the nucleotide sequence of an mRNA molecule or a mutation that changed the nucleotide sequence of a DNA molecule?
A mutation in a DNA nucleotide sequence would be more harmful than a mutation in a mRNA nucleotide sequence because it could cause the synthesis of multiple nonfunctional proteins in comparison to a mutation in a mRNA nucleotide sequence that would be less harmful because it would result in a few nonfunctional proteins.
Enzymes are nonfunctional proteins that act as biological catalys?
Leave out "nonfunctional" and you've got a more or less true statement.

What kinds of genetic testing exist?
Direct DNA sequencing examines the direct base pair sequence of a gene for specific gene mutations. Some genes contain more than 100,000 bases and a mutation of any one base can make the gene nonfunctional.
