Answer;

A) the resting position of the wave

Explanation;A wave is a transmission of a disturbance from one point which is the source to another, and this involves transfer of energy through a material medium.Equilibrium refers to a state of balance between opposing forces, it is a state of balance in which opposing forces cancel one another. When wave is in rest position its called equilibrium position of a wave. When a wave travels through a material medium, the particles in the medium are disturbed from their resting, or equilibrium positions.
