Light changes direction each time it passes from one medium to another - from air to glass, from glass to water, from water to glass, from glass to air. It will only NOT change direction if it is passing from one medium to another at exactly 90 degrees.
Heat travels through conduction, convection, and radiation. In conduction, heat moves through a solid material by vibrating molecules passing energy to neighboring molecules. Convection involves the transfer of heat through the movement of liquids or gases. Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves. Each of these methods can occur in different directions depending on the medium and conditions.
True. Radiation is energy that moves in the form of waves or particles and travels outward in all directions from its source.
A seismic wave is a wave of energy that travels through the Earth's layers away from an earthquake in all directions. There are two main types of seismic waves: P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves), with P-waves being faster and able to travel through both solid and liquid layers of the Earth.
A message travels through a neuron in the following order: dendrites receive the signal, the signal is passed through the cell body (soma), travels down the axon, and finally reaches the synaptic terminals where it is transmitted to the next neuron.
Both food and air travel through the digestive system. Food travels through the digestive system starting from the mouth, passing through the esophagus and stomach, and finally to the small and large intestines for absorption. Air travels through the respiratory system starting from the nose or mouth, passing through the trachea and bronchial tubes, and finally reaching the lungs for oxygen exchange.
A spherical wave travels in all directions, expanding outward from its source like ripples on the surface of water.

esophogus down to the large intestine in than through the small intestine than to the rectum and finally out.
Light always takes the shortest path possible through any medium. As such, when it travels through a vacuum, it travels in a straight line (no refraction). When it travels through the air, the molecules in the air scatter it very slightly, causing some diffusion and refraction, depending on the composition of the air through which it passes. When it travels through water, the shortest path through that medium is not a straight, collinear line from the point of incidence...it is actually offset by a small angle (the angle of refraction). The bent path that light takes through water or another substance is actually the shortest path available to it through that medium.

Light travels in straight lines and when the light travels through a translucent object light bounces off in all directions due to multiple reflections by the microscopic irregularities inside the material.

It travels in straight lines, However light cannot pass through walls, such as sound.
