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.
frameshift mutation, which alters the reading frame of the gene. This can result in a nonfunctional or altered protein being produced.
Mutations can alter the sequence of DNA, which can lead to changes in the structure and function of the proteins produced from that DNA. Depending on the type of mutation, it can result in a nonfunctional or altered protein, leading to various effects on the organism.
A frameshift mutation occurs when two extra guanine bases are added to DNA. This can lead to a shift in the reading frame of the genetic code, resulting in a nonfunctional or altered protein being produced.
Yes, the insertion of a DNA base into a gene can significantly affect an organism. This change can alter the amino acid sequence of the resulting protein, potentially impacting its function. Depending on the nature of the insertion, it may lead to a nonfunctional protein, a gain of function, or even cause diseases. In some cases, such mutations can also contribute to evolutionary adaptations.
This type of mutation is called a deletion mutation. It can lead to a frameshift mutation if the number of nucleotides deleted is not a multiple of three, resulting in a change in the reading frame and potentially producing a nonfunctional or altered protein. Deletion mutations can have significant impacts on the resulting phenotype.
If DNA pol 1 is nonfunctional, it can lead to errors in the DNA replication process, leading to mutations or incomplete DNA replication. This can affect the accuracy and stability of the genetic information passed on to daughter cells.

Leave out "nonfunctional" and you've got a more or less true statement.

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.
