Pulse allows us to deduce heart rate
One pulse per beat
Wave of high pressure blood passing along arteries
Thin walls
Squeezing
Adjacent Muscles
Gravity
Pocket Valves
Low pressure, risk of backflow
Continuous flow, no pulse
Semilunar Valves
Close during recoil, preventing backflow of blood to heart
