That description matches the corpus callosum, a structure of nerve fibers connecting the two hemispheres of the brain and facilitating communication between them.
corpus callosum
frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, temporal lobe, sylvian or lateral fissure, central sulcus. They are made up of greyish-white matter
The wave in which particles move back and forth at right angles to the direction of travel is called a transverse wave. This type of wave is commonly observed in phenomena such as light and electromagnetic waves.
If you mean sound waves, the only type of sound waves that can travel through air (or any gas, for that matter) is longitudinal waves.
They are four bundles of long fibres which connect the different lobes of the cerebral hemisphere together.These 4 bundles are = superior longitudinal + inferior longitudinal + cingulum + uncinate bundles
corpus callosum
A longitudinal wave.
In a longitudinal wave, matter moves back and forth in the same direction that the wave is traveling. This means that particles oscillate parallel to the direction of the wave propagation, causing compressions and rarefactions in the medium. Sound waves are a common example of longitudinal waves.
Longitudinal waves.
The type of wave in which the matter in the wave moves in the same direction as the wave itself is called a longitudinal wave. In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium oscillate back and forth parallel to the direction of energy transport. This is in contrast to a transverse wave, where the particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of energy transport. Sound waves are a common example of longitudinal waves.

Longitudinal wave.
That is a longitudinal wave.
Such a wave is called a longitudinal wave.
A longitudinal wave moves matter back and forth in the same direction that the wave is travelling. This type of wave creates compressions and rarefactions in the medium as it moves. Sound waves are examples of longitudinal waves.
It is not so much longitudinal vs. transverse - it is the type of wave. Mechanical waves, by definition, travel through matter. That includes sound waves. Mechanical waves, however, can be both longitudinal and transverse - and both require a medium.
