What's a pulse? Is it a type of animal?

Google said: a rhythmical throbbing of the arteries as blood is propelled through them, typically as felt in the wrists or neck.

edit: No need for the downvotes guys, I was genuinely curious. I bet not everyone knows pulses are legumes. Also OP used "pulse" in the singular, which most people (I think?) understand as the definition I pasted from Google.

Wow...pulses are legumes which quickly go from seed to plant. They’re also good for the soil by nitrogen fixing, Iirc. Lentils are a good example.
