The static and dynamic properties of the isotropic XY-model $(s=1/2)$ on the inhomogeneous periodic chain, composed of \emph{N} segments with \emph{n} different exchange interactions and magnetic moments, in a transverse field \emph{h} are obtained exactly at arbitrary temperatures. The properties are determined by introducing the generalized Jordan-Wigner transformation and by reducing the problem to a diagonalization of a finite matrix of \emph{n-th} order. The diagonalization procedure is discussed in detail and the critical behaviour induced by the transverse field, at T=0, is presented. The quantum transitions are determined by analyzing the behaviour of the induced magnetization, defined as $(1/n)\sum_{m=1}^{n}\mu_{m}
