A wave does not transport energy and matter.
Because it is caused by a disturbance
A mechanical wave is a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. A sound wave is an example of a mechanical wave.

Waves do not transport matter (except fot the matter equivalent of energy, according to the Theory of Relativity). For example, in a water wave, the wave moves on, but each water particle goes back to its place.Waves do not transport matter (except fot the matter equivalent of energy, according to the Theory of Relativity).

Transverse
To "transport" energy means to take the energy from one place to another. Waves are capable of doing that.
Water does not travel along with the wave. As the wave moves over the water, each little piece of water moves up and down and forward and back, but after the wave has moved on the water is in the same place. That is a common feature of wave motion. The energy is passed along the wave but the medium itself does not move with the wave.

Water waves do transport energy. This become obvious when you consider that a very large wave, such as a tsunami, can cause massive amounts of destruction. That takes energy.
Yes, for example sound is a longitudinal wave. It cannot travel in a vacuum.
