Explanation:

Removing a piece of DNA could severely affect the cell but it could also cause nothing. Depending on the part that is damaged, it could codify for a vital protein but it could also be an intron, which are pieces of DNA that don't codify for any protein. This has been recently researched and even though there are introns that could cause some serious trouble, most of them are an unknown matter to nowadays scientists. Anyway, a wrongly repaired sequence could end in a mutation that can potentially damage the cell and therefore the organism.
