why does frameshift mutation usually cause more defects during protein synthesis than a point mutation

I believe this is because the frameshift mutations can affect many amino acids. 

Frame shift mutation is produced by either insertion of deletion of one or more new bases. Since the reading frame begins at the start site, any mRNA produced from mutated DNA sequence will be read out of frame after the point of the insertion or deletion, thus producing a nonsense protein.

Bohr hypothesized what about the atom?
Shtirlitz [24]
To solve the stability problem, Bohr modified the Rutherford model by making sure that the electrons move in orbits of specific size and energy. The energy of an electron depends on the size of the orbit and is lower for smaller orbits. However, radiation can only happen when the electron jumps from one orbit to another.
