That's a description of "wavelength".

Which term describes the distance between any two crests in a transverse wave or the distance betweeen any two rarefactions in a longitudinal wave?
The wavelength
Which term describes between any two crests in a transverse wave or the distance between any two rarefactions in a longitude wave?
If you measure the distance between any two successive or consecutive crests in case of transverse wave is called the wavelength. If we get the distance between any two crests that will be definitely an integral multiple of the wavelength. The same in case of longitudinal waves. The distance between two successive rarefactions is known to be the wavelength.

Which parts of the transverse wave are analogous to the parts of a longitudinal wave?
Well the wavelength is the distance between succesive crests, or troughs on a transverse wave is the distance between consecutive compressions or rarefactions of a longitudinal wave. the frequency can is the time between consecutive crest on a transverse wave and the time between consecutive rarefactions or compressions on a longitudinal wave. the amplitude on a transverse wave is the distance between a crest and the zero value of the wave, not till the trough. on a longitudinal wave the amplitidue is measured by the strength of the rarefactions or compressions as compared to the natural state of the propagation medium. so for a longidudinal wave travelling throught the air; if the compression pressure is 4 bar the amplitude would be greater than if the compression pressure was 3 bar, because the air's natural pressure is 1 bar. in reality things like sound waves have much less compression pressure.

Wavelength
What is difference between crest and rarefaction?
Transverse waves have crests & troughs ,Longitudinal waves have compressions and rarefactions . rarefaction is a pulling force it is a point when least force is applied
