Solution

The correct option is B Energy
During wave propagation, only energy is transferred from one point to the other without the actual flow of matter. Particles only oscillate about their mean position. For example, if a string tied from both the ends is plucked at the centre, the string moves to and fro about its mean position but doesn't travel forward or backward.
