    Transverse and longitudinal waves both transfer energy through a medium.

    Answer: Option B

    Explanation:

    Waves are a medium of transfer of energy via medium. Generally waves are classified as longitudinal and transverse waves. In longitudinal waves, the medium transfer energy by displacing the media along the wave's direction.

    But in transverse wave energy propagation occurs by the medium travelling perpendicular to the wave's direction. But both longitudinal and transverse waves transfer energy through medium and thus these waves need a medium to propagate. So, both waves transfer the energy through the medium.
