Answer:

I) George is correct

Reason: Sound waves, an example of mechanical wave is only longitudinal NOT tranverse

Explanation:

The difference is that the direction of a tranverse wave is perpendicular to the direction of vibration unlike the direction of a longitudinal wave that is same as the direction of the vibration.

Also examples of mechanical waves are water waves (tranverse) and sound waves (longitudinal). Thus GEORGE IS CORRECT having stated that "sound waves were longitudinal and not transverse" unlike sally who made a non-specific statement

The Answer is Aloe Vera

Other topical uses include acne, sunburn, frostbite (it appears to prevent and healed or decreased blood flow), shingles, screening out x-ray radiation, psoriasis, preventing scarring, rosacea, warts, wrinkles from aging, and eczema. The raw plant is best, but commercial preparations can also be used, especially for taking orally, as this plant tastes horrible - even speeding recovery time after surgery. Aloe Vera is very familiar for centuries for its healing ingredients, and both oral intake and topical dressings have been documented to promote healing of any kind of skin wound, burn, or scald.
