    Answer: Longitudinal Waves

    Explanation: The particles of the medium pass parallel to the course that the heart beat moves. This sort of wave is a longitudinal wave. Longitudinal waves are usually characterised through particle motion being parallel to wave movement. A valid wave traveling thru air is a classic example of a longitudinal wave.
