A _______ is a rhythmic movement that carries energy through space or matter. A. crest B. trough C. wave D. tide

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, so, a trough is the lowest point of a wave while a crest is its highpoint. on the other hand, the tide is the rise and fall of the earth's water levels caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and a couple other things. hope this helps!

D is the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not quite. this is a wave: a disturbance or variation that transfers energy progressively from point to point in a medium and that may take the form of an elastic deformation or of a variation of pressure, electric or magnetic intensity, electric potential
