Frequency, Period, Amplitude and Wavelength

Frequency is the number of waves per unit time.
Period is the reciprocal of that - the duration of a single wave. 
Amplitude is the magnitude of the wave - how high it goes on the y axis. 
Wavelength is basically the same thing as period - the length of a single wave on the x axis.
