=> One is used as a pronoun for the noun "Lesion" in the sentence.
so there must be a symmetry of pronoun throughout the sentence.
A. a lesion when it is present or suggest that there is one (it and one - are not symmetry, also the place is not specified here to use a place pronoun)(Incorrect)
B. when a lesion is present or suggest that there is one (When depicts time, no time is specified. there is not depicting any place, so both "when and there" are creating ambiguity)(Incorrect)
C. a lesion when one is present or suggest that one is present (Symmetry of one- pronoun, no 'there' is present, clear and non-ambiguous) (Keep this)
D. when a lesion is present or suggest its presence (When depicts time, no time is specified, also its-one pronoun are not symmetrical) (Incorrect)
E. the presence of a lesion when it is there or suggest its presence (Same mistake as in D)

A. a lesion when it is present or suggest that there is one - “it” is ambiguous. Later part of the sentence refers to as “one”. Keep. But not convincing.
B. when a lesion is present or suggest that there is one — fails to identify <<noun needed>>. Eliminate. Also, when modifies “time”. No such time mentioned here. Eliminate.
C. a lesion when one is present or suggest that one is present — fixes the error in A. Eliminate A after review. Don’t find anything wrong. Keep.
D. when a lesion is present or suggest its presence — same as B. Eliminate.
E. the presence of a lesion when it is there or suggest its presence — identify <<lesion>> is better construct than identify <<the presence of a lesion>>. Also usage of “when” to modify “lesion”. Eliminate.
C is the correct answer
