A pulse at the wrist is detected in a
(a) systemic vein
(b) systemic artery
(c) pulmonary vein
(d) pulmonary artery
Correct Answer: (b) systemic artery
Explanation:
Pulse is the heart rate of a person. It is the number of times the heart beats in one minute. Pulse rates vary from person to person. Your pulse is lower when you are at rest and increases when you exercise as more oxygen-rich blood is needed by the body when you exercise.
A normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute. Generally, a lower heart rate at rest implies more efficient heart function and better cardiovascular fitness. For example, a well-trained athlete might have a normal resting heart rate closer to 40 beats per minute.
