What is a wave in which matter moves in the same direction as the wave?
The matter transfers the energy, it does not move very far. It circles at approximately the same spot as the wave energy passes.
A transverse or compressional wave that can travel only through matter?
That would be sound.
A wave transports energy but not matter true or false?
A wave does not transport energy and matter.
The movement of energy through substances in longitudinal waves is?
The movement of energy through substances in longitudinal waves is sound. :)
Does waves move energy through space no matter what?
Because of the force that it has, (kinetic)
Do compression waves need matter for energy transfer?
Yes, compressional waves are what sound is made of. Since there is no sound in a vacuum, it can be assumed that compressional waves only travel through matter. You can also think of it like this: they're called compression waves because something is compressing. If there was no matter, there'd be nothing for them to compress.

How can waves transport energy without trasporting matter from place to another?
When the waves travel through solids, liquids, and gases, matter is not carried along with the waves. The energy is then passed from molecule to molecule as the wave spreads out.
How energy transferred through matter?
energy is transferred through matter or space by
Does waves move energy through space no matter what?

The matter through which waves transfers energy?
The matter through which waves transfers energy is a medium.
How does matter move in a compressional wave.?
Matter vibrates in the same direction as the wave is traveling
What is matter in a compressional wave that is tightly packed together?
Compression.
What kinds of energy travel through matter?
Heat and light energy travel through space and matter
