Answer:

Transverse.

Step-by-step explanation:

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

An electromagnetic spectrum refers to a range of frequency and wavelength that an electromagnetic wave is distributed or extends. The electromagnetic spectrum comprises of gamma rays, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, radio waves, and infrared radiation.

A transverse wave can be defined as a type of wave in which particles of the medium of propagation oscillates or vibrates in a direction that is perpendicular to the direction that the wave moves i.e at right angle to the direction of propagation of the wave.

Basically, sound is a transverse and all transverse wave are the direct opposite of a longitudinal wave that usually travel in the same direction of its oscillation.

Hence, this wave is transverse.
