The frequency of the waves acquired when the person is in an alert and wakeful state is _______(a) 4 – 8 Hz(b) 8 – 13 Hz(c) 13 – 30 Hz(d) > 30 Hz

Answer» Correct answer is (c) 13 – 30 Hz

Explanation: When a person is alert and properly awake, the waves obtained are beta waves. These waves range from 13 – 20 Hz. The alpha waves (8 – 13 Hz) are obtained when a person is asleep. Theta waves (4 – 8 Hz) are found when the person is sitting idle or in children. Sometimes, these waves are generated when the person is about to fall asleep.  Gamma waves (> 30 Hz) are found when a person is doing an intense mental activity or is multitasking.
