Answer:

<h2>Longitudinal Waves.</h2>

Explanation:

There are two types of waves: longitudinal and transversal waves.

Longitudinal waves are those where the oscillation and propagation have the same direction, for example, a spring have its oscillation in the same direction of the propagation. This means that both directions are parallel.

On the other hand, transversal waves have these directions differently, like ocean's waves, particles move up and down, while the waves is propagating forward or backwards, this means that both direction are perpendicular.

An example of polytamic anoin would be a. Ca+2 b. NH4+ c. F d. PO4-3

$PO_4^{-3}$ and $NH^{4+}$ are polyatomic anions composed of two or more atoms.

<h3>What is a polyatomic anion?</h3>

A polyatomic ion is an ion composed of two or more atoms. Examples: The hydroxide cation ( $OH^-$ ) and the phosphate cation ( $PO_4^{3-}$ ) are both polyatomic ions.
