What is the force exerted by blood as it moves through the blood vessels?
This is called blood pressure. Blood pressure is measured in two parts. The first number is the systolic blood pressure and this shows the pressure exerted on artery walls when the ventricles contract and pump blood into the arteries and around the body. The second number is the diastolic blood pressure and this shows the pressure in the arteries when the heart is at rest and refilling ready for the next contraction.Blood pressureThis is known as blood pressure. The pressure high is during systole (when the heart pumps blood to the body) and a pressure low during diastole (when the heart is receiving blood back from the body)This is sometimes referred to as arterial pressure and different measurements are made regarding the arterial pressure such as the mean arterial pressure (MAP).
