Answer:

A. Insertion of the muscle

Explanation:

Skeletal muscles are made up of hundreds of elongated cells known as muscle fibers. These fibers are composed of actin and myosin, proteins with contraction capacity and which form thin and thick filaments, respectively.

When a muscle contracts and shortens, one of its extremities usually remains fixed, while the other (more mobile) end is pulled towards it, resulting in movement.

The insertion is the distal end of the muscle that moves during contraction, ie it is the end attached to the bone that moves (moving point).

A pea plant that has round seeds has the genotype Rr. It is crossed with a pea plant that has wrinkled seeds and the genotype rr
alexandr402 [8]
In order to answer this, you will need to set up a Punett Square (I have attached a picture). 

Since Rr is the genotype of round seeds, we know that round must be dominant to wrinkled, and therefore represented by the allele, R.

Since rr is the genotype of wrinkled seeds, we know that wrinkled must be the recessive trait, and there represented by the allele, r.

Since the Punnett Square shows that the genotype ratio is 2Rr : 2rr, or simplified, 1Rr : 1rr, we now know that there is a 50% chance the offspring will have wrinkled seeds.
