MaxineTransverse myelitis is a neurological condition characterized by inflammation of the spinal cord. This inflammation can result in damage to the myelin (protective covering of nerve fibers), leading to symptoms such as weakness, sensory disturbances, and bladder and bowel dysfunction. Treatment typically involves corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and manage symptoms.

Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Radio waves are transverse waves. This means that the oscillations of the waves are perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer.
In what type of waves do particles in the medium vibrate perpendicularly to the direction in which the waves are traveling?
Transverse waves have particles in the medium vibrating perpendicular to the direction in which the waves are traveling. Examples of transverse waves include electromagnetic waves like light and water waves.
Is sound a transverse wave?
No, sound is a longitudinal wave, not a transverse wave.
Is an infrared wave a transverse wave?
Yes, an infrared wave is a transverse wave. Transverse waves are characterized by oscillations perpendicular to the direction of wave travel, and infrared waves exhibit this type of motion as they propagate through space.
Are electromagnetic waves longitudinal or transverse in nature?
Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature.
