The first type (functional conflict) could be there by design and could be a good thing to have.   Like the fuel pedal and the brake pedal next to each other in a car.  One is exactly the opposite eof ther and the are both needed in the car to perform as needed.  Imagine a car with one but not the other and how the situation will be !

 

The second type (dysfunctional conflict) is negative by nature and can lead to damages, losses and disasters if not resolved promptly and firmly as they occur.    Disputes, disagreements, conflicting interests, unhealthy competition ,,,, and others) are just some example of this type of conflicts that may lead to crisis if not managed/resolved in time !!
