Answer: The statement is false 
Explanation:
NONSENSE mutation, NOT MISSENSE mutation causes premature chain (protein) termination. 
Missense mutation is simply a kind of point mutation where a single nucleotide is changed to cause substitution of a different amino acid, thus resulting in a non-functional protein. 
So, non-functional protein is caused by missense mutation making the statement false 
 
        
             
        
        
        
These segments of DNA that contain the code for specific proteins are called genes. 
Actual coding region of DNA are called exons.
Explanation:
A segment of DNA that codes for one distinct protein is called a gene. Each chromosome carries thousands of various genes. The genetic code of the DNA ever prevails protected inside the nucleus.
 a gene is a stretch of DNA. Nucleotide consists of a sugar, phosphate and a base.. Genes are organized and packaged in units named “chromosomes.” Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes.
