If the aortic valve could not close completely would the diastolic or systolic pressure be affected?
Diastolic, because it would lower the pressure.
When the systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure are too close together what might that indicate?
Reduced blood flow ... but its usually an artifact of measurement rather than real.
What is the lowest diastolic pressure heart can tolerate?
When after contraction of ventricles of heart, blood is propelled into circulatory system (both systemic and pulmonary circulation) and that pressure is called systolic pressure, witch dilates the aorta and large(and small also) arteries. When ventricles relax in diastole aortic (and pulmonary) valves close down and then aorta and large (and small also)arteries contract, witch are dilated during systole. Peripheral resistance in closed system maintain the lower blood pressure called diastolic blood pressure.
Does 125 represent a maximum or minimum systolic pressure at age 30?
It is not the maximum systolic pressure, but if close to that point.
Is it OK if your systolic is 165 and diastolic 65?
It would depend on whether or not you had this reading on a fairly regular basis. The systolic number of 165 is higher than normal and should be evaluated by a doctor.
Is a reading of 96 for systolic and 64 for diastolic too low?
Systolic is when your heart is pumping, and diastolic is when the heart is at rest. Your diastolic pressure seems fine, however a systolic of 140 could mean you have isolated systolic hypertension. It would be worth it to speak to your doctor and see what you measures you can take to manage it.
What are characteristics of the U.S. Navy's super frigates?
close together timbers, fast enough to escape superior forces, and a reinforced hull to resist the pressures of heavier ordnance on deck
What were the characteristics of the early navy super frigates?
Close-together timbers able to withstand heavy cannon fire and a reinforced hull to resist the pressures of heavier ordnance on deck

Why does smoke stay close to the ground?
It's due to the atmospheric pressures.
