in general, a harmonically oscillating, one dimensional wave is described by the following function: f(x,t)=Acos(2phi*t/T -2phi*x/ג) where A is the amplitudes (or wave height), T is the wave's period time and ג is the wave length. these are the three basic characteristics of a wave. other characteristics can be calculated from these: the frequency f=1/T , and the speed of the wave v=גf.

Which wave characteristic is most related to sound wave intensity?
Amplitude (the height of the wave)
Can amplitude be transmitted by wave?
Amplitude is a characteristic of a wave, so it is not actually transmitted transmitted by a wave.
Which is a characteristic of an electromagnetic wave?
The fields are at right angles to each other and to the direction of the wave.

Which characteristic of a wave changes as the wave travels across a boundary between two different media?
The essential characteristic that changes is the speed of the wave. The wavelength also changes. Amplitude and polarization can change. What does not change is the frequency.
