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.

Explanation:

First of all, barchans are sand formations that are created after the accumulation of sand in a place is moved by the wind and provides them a curved form. However, they exist only out of the sea.

Second, hooked spits are formations that happen after sea movement displaces the sediment to create a curved structure that can only exist in the sea. These formations affect the strength and direction of the waves in the sea due to their curved form.
