Solution
The correct option is D None of the above
This sequential event in the heart which is cyclically repeated is called the cardiac cycle. Each cardiac cycle consists of systole and diastole of both the atria and ventricles. Each cardiac cycle represents one heartbeat. The normal heart rate is about 72 beats per minute. The heart rate is same as pulse rate because the pumping action of the heart causes an increase in blood pressure in arteries. Hence pulse rate can be measured in the arteries of the neck and arteries of the wrist.So, the correct answer is 'None of the above'.
