Oncogene is a gene that promotes cancer growth while proto-oncogene is the gene that prevents cancer.
One of the characteristics of cancer is their uncontrollable growth. In cell cycle, there is some checkpoint that will detect genetic damage and repair it, or stop the cell cycle.  Proto-oncogene would be responsible for repairing the DNA or signaling the cell to stop dividing. When proto-oncogene damaged, it becomes oncogene and the cell is much more likely develop into cancer.

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

b. giving birth to live young (viviparous)

Explanation:

Monotremes include duck-billed platypus and few other mammalian species that are oviparous. These mammalian species do not give birth to young ones, that is, they are not viviparous. Rather they lay eggs and are oviparous.

These species are also characterized by the absence of teeth. The primitive monotremes also exhibit external fertilization.

Examples of egg-laying mammals include anteaters or echidnas and the duck-billed platypus. The laid eggs are carried by females in an abdominal ouch to keep them warm.
