Solution

The correct option is A artery
Pulse is the alternate expansion and relaxation of the artery wall during ventricular systole. It is equivalent to measuring the heart rate. The heart rate can also be measured by listening to the heart beat directly using a stethoscope and counting it for a minute. The radial pulse is commonly measured using three fingers.
