B) The cells you create will run out of the GTP necessary to activate Ras.
C) The cells you create will divide more frequently compared to normal cells in response to the extracellular signals that typically activate Ras.
D) The normal Ras in the cells you create will not be able to bind GDP because the dominant-negative Ras binds to GDP too tightly.
