Answer:

The answer is A. Must travel throughout a medium.

Step-by-step explanation:

The transmission of sound depends on the existence of a material medium (solid, liquid, air particles) where the vibration of the molecules are perceived as a sound wave, which are converted into mechanical waves in the human ear, to be later perceived by the brain.

hope this helps
