Your blood vessels carry water and food out to all the cells or parts of your body. Blood vessels are flexible and stretch. When your heart beats the blood is pushed into your arteries is carries the good stuff around to the places in your body that needs it, then the left over slowly fills the veins that carries it back, taking the wastes and stuff to be cleaned by the kidneys and liver and to get more good stuuf like oxygen from your lungs or food that has been absorbed through your stomach. Also the high part of your blood pressure reading is when the blood whooshes through your vein as the heart beats and the low part is when the heart is relaxed and the doctor can tell if your veins and heart are doing a good job by watching these numbers over time.

The sphygmomanometer works by putting pressure on a blood vessel and then measuring when the blood vessel starts to pump blood again after pressure is lessened. This device is also called a blood pressure monitor.
Dilation of a blood vessel is the term for physiologic widening of the vessel. Abnormal widening of the blood vessel through a weakening of the wall is known as aneurysm.Dilation of a blood vessel means widening of the vessel.

Damage to the blood vessel.
Yes it is a Blood Vessel
The pulmonary artery, because it's the only vessel that oxygenates blood to the lungs.
Aorta
Yes. It depends on the blood vessel and where it is, but yes a rupture to a blood vessel can kill you. A blood vessel is more likely to "pop" or rupture if it has an aneurysm, which is a local weakness where the blood vessel has stretched from the pressure of the blood. This is more likely to result in death if it is in a large blood vessel or in a critical location, such as the aorta or a vessel in the brain.
This artery is called the dorsal aorta and it is a main artery leading from the heart. It divides and branches out to smaller arteries that ensure that all of the body is supplied with oxygen.
A blood pressure machine works by measuring the blood vessel walls as the blood pushes against them. There are two numbers that the machine measures, the rate at which the heart contracts, and the rate at which it relaxes. These are labeled as a fraction, the former over the latter.
