any kind of activity can raise your pulse or your heart rate; for example - having sex, running, walking, working out, even just sitting up from laying down will raise your pulse for a second or two

∙ 11y agoBlood pressure is caused by the heart pumping blood through the arteries. The top number is called the systolic number, and is the pressure in the arteries when the heart is actively pumping blood. The bottom number, called the diastolic number, is the pressure in the arteries when the heart is at rest.

How will a pressure increase affect a gaseous system?
According to Boyle's Law of Pressure-Volume Relationship, an increase in the pressure of a gas will decrease it's volume. And according to Charles's Law of Temperature-Pressure Relationship, an increase in pressure causes an increase in temperature.
When you exert force on a fluid in a closed container does the pressure increase decrease or remain constant?
The pressure increases.
What causes Crystallization in a lithium bromide system?
any lowering of tempuratur of increase of pressure and do to general gas law tempurature is inversly proportional to pressure causing thetemp to drop
How is sodium harmful?
Without going into too much detail. Sodium causes the kidneys to retain more water than they typically would. This causes thevolume of the blood to increase. Increased blood volume leads to an increase in blood pressure. High blood pressure can lead to stroke, aneurysm, and other damage to the arteries.
What causes the evaporation rate of water to increase?
There are two factors that can increase the vaporization of water. The first is increasing the system heat, simply put boiling it. Or one can decrease the system air pressure which will also increase evaporation.
Which describes the effect or prolonged stress on blood pressure?
It causes blood pressure to increase.
What might abnormal increase in venous pressure indicate?
An abnormal increase in venous pressure may indicate a problem with one of the heart valves. It could also mean that the person is on medication that causes higher blood pressure.
Describe the changes in gas pressure?
The increase in solubility causes increase in pressure.
Describe the effect of increasing the beaker pressure on glomerular pressure?
An increase in beaker pressure causes an increase in glomerular pressure.
Can you have an increase in heart rate without an increase in blood pressure?
Sure, generally, if your heart beats faster, your blood pressure drops.
Increased heart rate causes systolic pressure to increase or decrease mean arterial pressure?
Mean arterial pressure can be thought of as 1/3 systolic + 2/3 diastolic since the heart spends slightly more time is diastole (rest) that it does in systole (contracting). MAP = 1/3 systolic + 2/3 diastolic. Therefore, an increase in either systolic or diastolic will increase the MAP. Additionally, under physiological conditions, an increase in heart rate will increase blood pressure. Increased HR leads to increased cardiac output, among other things, which increase blood pressure.
Why is smoking bad for your blood pressure?
The nicotine in a cigarette causes small blood vessels to constrict, which thereby increases blood pressure.
Uses for foxglove?
heart mediater, it causes rapid increase in heart rate, causes stroke, heart attack etc.
Why is there no increase in diastolic pressure after exercise?
Diastole is a stage in which the heart is completely relaxed in order for blood to pour into the heart's atria (upper chambers). Although the rate at which the blood enters the heart increases (causing a slight increase in pressure), there is no contraction for the pressure to increase drastically.
What causes more heart diseases heart rate or high blood pressure?
High blood pressure
How does the cardiovascular system increase pressure?
Contractions of the heart.
What are the sources of a heart attack?
Diabities, obecity, high blood pressure and high cholesterol are main causes of heart attack. Lack of exercise, Junk and oily food are resposible to increase these diseases.
