Best Answer

The heart has two pumps inside of it and each has two chambers and two valves. The left side of the heart has the biggest chambers, and the one that pumps the blood to your body is called the left ventricle, When it contracts (squeezes together), the first valve closes shut (that's the "lupp" sound of a heart beat) and the contraction pushes the blood up past the second valve and into aorta, which is the main artery that distributes the blood to the regular arteries that carry the blood throughout the body. When the blood goes into the aorta, the second valve shuts so the blood doesn't go backwards into the heart and that is the "dubb" sound of a heart beat.

Please tell me, what is blood pressure?

High blood pressure is the force that blood exerts in blood vessels when the heart contracts and relaxes. The systolic pressure is the force by blood being pumped by the heart, and the diastolic pressure is the force when the ventricles are refilled by blood. High blood pressure means that the heart needs more pressure in order to contract and relax, therefore straining your heart and putting you at a higher risk of having a heart attack. Bill Nye once said in one of his episodes that garlic can help soothe high blood pressure.
