Konner Vaughan · Answer 1

They do not take the water (or the items in the water) with them. They only carry energy.

Solomon Mccullough · Answer 2

They do not transport water, if thats the question.

Explanation:

Classical waves transfer energy without transporting matter through the medium. Waves in a pond do not carry the water molecules from place to place; rather the wave's energy travels through the water, leaving the water molecules in place, much like a bug bobbing on top of ripples in water.
