Propagation of disturbance suffered by a particle in a medium is called wave propagation
Wave Propagation is a term used to estimate the actions and characteristics of a wave of motion either in solids, liquids, gasses, or electrical radio type waves by the environment it is in and what factors affect those waves behaviors.

What is the direction of wave propagation in a transverse wave?
In a transverse wave, the direction of wave propagation is perpendicular to the direction of the wave oscillation.
What is the relationship between the wavelength and the propagation direction in a longitudinal wave?
In a longitudinal wave, the wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points that are in phase with each other. The propagation direction of the wave is the direction in which the wave is moving. The relationship between the wavelength and the propagation direction in a longitudinal wave is that the wavelength is parallel to the propagation direction.
What is the direction of oscillation of the particles of each wave?
In a transverse wave, the particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. In a longitudinal wave, the particles oscillate parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
What is direction of a waves motion called?
Well, it's often referred to as the direction of propagation of the wave.
Which direction do particles vibrate in transfer waves?
Particles in a transverse wave vibrate perpendicular to the direction of the wave's propagation. In a longitudinal wave, particles vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave's propagation.
