Solution
A) arteries When you check for pulse, you try to palpate the "ebb and flow" of blood flowing through an artery.
During systole, pressure waves are created by each heartbeat. As the waves travel through the arteries they can be felt through the skin and subcutaneous tissues because arteries are elastic and compliant.
The qualities of the measured pulse indicate blood pressure, heart rate, arterial resistance, etc.
