Answer

similar characters evolved owing to convergent evolution; similar characters are ancestral

Explanation:

Convergent evolution happens when two organisms belonging to different species, living at different times or different continents but the same biome develop analogous structures hence making them appear similar.  The analogous structures were not present in the known ancestors of both groups.

Therefore convergent evolution is ignored during constructing phylogenies

Also similar characteristics that are ancestral are ignored.

What is the relationship between proto-oncogenes and oncogenes? hints what is the relationship between proto-oncogenes and oncog
Elan Coil [88]
Oncogenes result from turning on, or activating proto oncogenes. Proto oncogenes are genes that code for positive cell cycle regulators, so proto oncogenes code for proteins that turn on cell division. Proto oncogenes are normal genes, but when they are mutated, they become oncogenes.  Oncogenes are expressed too much, which makes them  turn on cell division too much, which is cancer.
