Answer:

straight

Step-by-step explanation:

When a person runs bends the legs to reduce rotational inertia, in addition the short legs have less rotation inertia than the long ones. An animal with short legs has a faster pace than one with long legs. Therefore the rotational inertia is greater when the leg is straight and the longer it is.
