The fluids in your body exert pressure and prevent the atmospheric pressure from closing in. Fluids exert pressure on a container the particles collide with each other and the sides of the container.

What C does water boil under normal atmospheric pressure?
100 Celsius
How would you demonstrate the presence of atmospheric pressure?
Suck the air out of a container and watch it being crushed. Look at a balloon. Its round shape tells you that the pressure (atmospheric) from outside acts equally from all directions. Now take that balloon up a mountain and watch the balloon get bigger. There is less atmospheric pressure acting on the outside of the balloon the higher you go so the pressure inside the balloon makes the balloon bigger.
Why are you not crushed by atmosperic pressure?
Because your structure has evolved in order to withstand atmospheric pressure. A creature that could not survive atmospheric pressures would not be able to survive, and therefore would not be able to produce offspring. All of the body's tissues contain dissolved air (nitrogen & oxygen) at pressure equilibrium with the atmosphere. In effect the body "pushes back" against atmospheric pressure, just as ocean creatures withstand crushing water pressure by mostly consisting of water.
How does the human body resist the atmospheric pressure?
because our body pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
What is the relation between pressure in atmosphere and pressure?
Atmospheric pressure is the surrounding pressure around us. We live in the atmosphere and treat the atmospheric pressure as the base pressure. A pressure gauge would read 0 at atmospheric pressure. When we define the pressure in scientific way of absolute pressure, we need to add up an atmospheric pressure to the measured pressure.
Why are you crushed by atmospheric pressure?
The force is equal to when you experience these feelings.
Would a human get smashed if the got on Venus?
A human would be crushed by the intense atmospheric pressure, which is 90 times that of the Earth's atmospheric pressure.
What if someone wanted to land on Jupiter?
They would quickly be crushed by the atmospheric pressure.
What diffculties for sustaing life on Venus?
no air, high atmospheric pressure, would be crushed
Why does your head not get crushed with atmospheric pressure?
Like the air inside a baloon, the fluids inside your body exert pressure. This pressure inside your body acts against atmospheric pressure. I was looking for the answer for a school assignment! Textbooks help!
How a person would fare on Venus?
They would suffocate. And be crushed by gravity and (maybe) atmospheric pressure.
Can I capture co2 under atmospheric pressure?
You will need to use a carbon scrubber device to capture co2 under atmospheric pressure.
Can mean effective pressure less than atmospheric pressure?
no Because any body subject is affected by the atmospheric pressure in the case of its occurrence under the pressure of what it means that the pressure for increased atmospheric pressure.
Why don't people get crushed by atmospheric pressure?
Because your body can only with stand a certain amount of pressure because of your internal organs
Would a can of coke be crushed due to gravity or atmosphereic pressure in venus?
I think it can because there is a lot of atmospheric pressure so it can be crushed at one point.It would be crushed very quickly. The pressure on Venus is almost 100 times the pressure on earth. The gravity on Venus is less than the gravity on earth, however.
Is the state of lithium a solid under atmospheric pressure?
Yes
Why does a difference in air pressure crush things?
A can or container can stay rigid due to equal pressure from the inside and the outside. When the atmospheric pressure from the outside increases mote than the pressure pushing out from the inside, the material gets crushed.
