Please shouldn't the answer be D? It experiences an electromagnetic force due to the interacting electric currents in concentric circles on the current-carrying conductor and the ambient magnetic field.

Myschool is correct
B is correct
When a current-carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field the wire experiences a force due to the interaction between the field and the magnetic field produced by the moving charges in the wire. The current carrying conductor generates it own magnetic field around it.
