That depends, for sound waves typically travel through molecules in the air or really any other median.

What is A wave whose source is some form of repeating motion?
since wave
A source that is vibrating with simple harmonic motion produces a?
sine wave
What is it that moves from source to receiver and wave motion?
The wavelength of a transverse wave is the distance between successive crests.
Is the wave transport water molecules from the source of vibration?
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.
How does this motion relate to wave motion?
because motion is moving and wave motion has waves

What moves from source to receiver in wave motion?
Energy.

What is a direction that a mechanical wave can displace its medium?
Both parallel and perpendicular to the motion of the wave at the same time/Perpendicular to the motion of the wave/Parallel to the motion of the wave - APEXPerpendicular to the motion of the wave.Parallel to the motion of the wave.Both parallel and pependicular to the motion of the wave at the same time.
What describes the motion of the media for a surface wave?
The motion is parallel to wave direction The motion is both parallel and perpendicular to wave direction. The motion is perpendicular to wave direction.
How does the motion of a wave change?
the motion of a wave changes when it moves
What is the difference between bulk motion and wave motion?
In Bulk Motion, the actual object is moving along in a wave formation. In Wave Motion, only the wave is moving, not the material . Picture a 'wave' at a ball game. The people move up and down but not from seat to seat. This is Wave Motion.
In a compressional wave the motion of the particle are parallel to the motion of the wave?
Yes
Which kind of wave is a water wave?
A wave in a body of water is a traveling transverse wave because the motion of the medium (water) is perpendicular to the motion of the wave.
