What is the term used to describe words like, "BAM", "WOW", "KAPOW" -- ETC. . . .

Answer 1

Interjections.

Answer 2

An onomatopoeia is a figure of speech that employs a word, or occasionally, a grouping of words, that imitates the sound it is describing, and thus suggests its source object, such as “bang” or “click”, or animal such as “moo”, “oink”, “quack”, or “meow”.

So for your example Bam and Kapow are onomatopoeias.

Wow is an interjection. An interjection is a part of speech that usually has no grammatical connection to the rest of the sentence and simply expresses emotion on the part of the speaker, although most interjections have clear definitions.

Answer 3

BAM, KAPOW = onomotopias (word used to describe a sound ex: meow, whoosh)
WOW = interjection (show excitement and emotion ex: wow, drat, darn, ouch)
