Correct Answer - C
The electromagnetic wave contains sinusoidally time varying electric and magnetic field which act perpendicualr to each other as well at right angle to the direction of propagation of waves, so electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature. Elecromagnetic wave propagate in the perpendicular direction to both fields.
