Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Xeroderma pigmentosum arises as a result of the cell being unable to correct lesions induced by UV.

Flagellum is long, filamentous and it rotates via motor which is located on the inner cell membrane. The motor is powered by proton motive force (flow of protons through the membrane due to a concentration gradient).
