mod_proxy is the old proxy that Apache has had since 1.3 or earlier. Basic idea is to pass on the incoming request to another server. mod_proxy_ajp was introduced in Apache 2.2 to extend the mod_proxy module with the ability to pass client HTTP requests back to a tomcat instance via the AJP/1.3 protocol. Think if it as incorporating the functions of mod_jk into mod_proxy.

This isn't *any* web server as per your previous post it is a specific
one. Different question, hence different answer.

If you are going to use mod_proxy then why not go the whole way and
use mod_proxy_ajp?
