AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) butt.

The other answer choices are incorrect because:
- A seam is a line where two pieces of material are sewn or otherwise joined together, which is not the case in this illustration.
- A span refers to the distance between two supports, which is not the relevant feature in this diagram.
- A sheet line is the edge or outline of a sheet of material, which is also not the joint indicated by the letter D in this illustration.
