Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The power used by most bacterial flagellar motors is produced by proton motive force (PMF), which is generated by the flow of protons across the bacterial membrane. This PMF drives rotation of the flagellar motor, allowing the bacteria to move. The other options, such as synthesis of glucose and ATP hydrolysis, may be involved in the production of the PMF, but they are not the direct source of power for the flagellar motor. Therefore, option D is not the best choice.
