Base-pair insertions have a greater effect because they shift the information on the DNA down and change all following information, whereas substitutions may change only one amino acid or have no effect.
-The base-pairs code for amino acids in groups of three. If just one base is added in, then this grouping is shifted upstream by one. The incorrect amino acids will be coded for and added to the protein being built. It could possibly stop the protein from being synthesized fully if the change creates a stop codon. This usually hinders the protein from functioning.
-Base-pair substitution mutations only affect the codon (set of 3 base pairs) that it actually occurs in. If the mutation is in the first base-pair of the codon then the amino acid will change. If the mutation is in the second or third position of the codon then amino acid may or may not change; this is because amino acids can be coded for by more than one codon, but the first base-pair (and sometimes the second) is usually the same. A substitution can also change a codon to a stop codon. This may keep the amino acid the same, change only one amino acid (which does not always stop the protein from working), or cause the protein to prematurely stop being built.
Substitution mutations are named for the process by which one nucleotide in the DNA sequence is replaced or "substituted" with another nucleotide. This change can result in a different amino acid being incorporated into a protein or may have no effect at all, depending on the nature of the substitution. The term highlights the specific alteration of a single base pair without the insertion or deletion of additional nucleotides.
A substitution mutation occurs when one nitrogen base in the DNA sequence is replaced by another. This can lead to three possible outcomes: it may result in a silent mutation (no change in the amino acid), a missense mutation (a different amino acid is produced), or a nonsense mutation (a premature stop codon is introduced). The specific effect depends on the location and nature of the substitution within the genetic code.
It can have absolutely no affect, a bad affect, or even a good affect.*Deletion and Addition are frameshift: most harmful.
Three ways mutations can occur in genes are: 1. Insertion: Extra DNA nucleoties are added to the DNA strand. 2. Deletion: DNA nucleotides are deleted, therefore, changing the DNA sequence. 3. Translocation: parts of chromosomes are exchanged.
Deletion mutations remove one or more nucleotides from the DNA sequence, causing a shift in the reading frame during translation. This can lead to a non-functional protein being produced due to a different amino acid sequence or a premature stop codon.
A mutation is simply a change in your genes or DNA sequence. The types of mutations in Biology are: substitution, insertion, deletion, and frame-shift. Contrary to popular belief, mutations are often harmless.

"I believe there is insertion and deletion, (one kind), and substitutions. (the second kind)" This answer is incorrect, the two types of frameshift mutation are insertion and deletion, these both alter the translation reading frame. A substitution point mutation in DNA is referred to as a single-nucleotide polymorphism and does not result in any change to the translational reading frame. insections and deletions are two types of frameshift mutations
A frameshift mutation alters the reading frame of the genetic code, causing all amino acids downstream of the mutation to be incorrect. This can lead to a nonfunctional or drastically altered protein. A substitution mutation only changes one amino acid, which may have a milder effect on protein function.
A single-nucleotide substitution causing a missense mutation that changes a critical amino acid in the protein's active site or functional domain is most likely to have a catastrophic effect on the protein's function. This type of mutation can disrupt the protein's structure or its ability to interact with other molecules, leading to severe functional impairment.
A frameshift mutation, such as an insertion or deletion of a nucleotide, that occurs just after the AUG start codon is likely to have the most serious effect on the polypeptide product. This is because frameshift mutations shift the reading frame of the mRNA sequence, causing all subsequent codons to be read incorrectly, leading to a completely altered polypeptide sequence.
A substitution mutation occurs when one nitrogen base in the DNA sequence is replaced by another. This can lead to three possible outcomes: it may result in a silent mutation (no change in the amino acid), a missense mutation (a different amino acid is produced), or a nonsense mutation (a premature stop codon is introduced). The specific effect depends on the location and nature of the substitution within the genetic code.

Deletion mutations can affect the entire base sequence.
A point mutation, in which one nitrogen base in a codon is substituted for another, may have no effect on an organism. This is true if the base substitution does not change the amino acid that the codon represents, or if the mutation occurs in a non-critical location in the protein so that the protein's structure is not changed significantly and the protein is still able to function.
When a nitrogen base is substituted for a different one so it may code for a different amino acid. Sometimes substitution still codes for a same amino acid, in which case it becomes a silent mutation, but in other times it may alter the protein entirely.
Yes, Price effect = substitution effect + income effect
