They are different in structure as one serves in an open system (lymphatic system) while the other serves is closed system (circulatory system).

Hope this helps!

rewona [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Proto-oncogenes are genes that have the potential to turn normal cells to cancer cells if they mutate. Once they have a mutation, they are called oncogenes. These typically code for proteins that control the cell cycle and cell growth.

Ras proteins are intracellular, and act as molecular switches that can be inactive or active. If they are inactive and receive a signal from the extracellular space indicating that the cell has to grow, they bind GTP and become activated. Once active, they send further signals that stimulate cell proliferation and division. After a while of sending those signals, the Ras protein hydrolizes GTP to GDP because it has an intrinsic GTPase activity, and becomes inactive once again, stopping the growth signal.

Mutations in the Ras oncogene typically affect the GTPase activity, causing its loss of function and subsequently that the Ras protein stays permanently active. This, in turn, causes uncontrollable cell proliferation, characteristic of cancer.

mario62 [17]

Answer:

correct option is E) horizontal gene transfer

Explanation:

solution

we know here that phenomenon account for movement of these genes is horizontal gene transfer because we know Horizontal gene transfer are primary mechanism for spreading of antibiotic resistance in the bacteria

and  

in many mechanism some are

(1) transformation

(2) transduction

(3) Gene transfer agents  

and that Gene transfer agent is  virus and it like element encode by host that is occur in alpha proteobacteria  

and  

we know that implant of one to other plant can transfer chloroplasts , mitochondrial and entire cell nucleus contain the genome to the potential makes new species

as that we can say here correct option is E) horizontal gene transfer
