Who would have a higher pulse pressure a resting athlete or a resting person who never exercise?

A person who has never exercised before would have a higher heart rate and blood pressure than an ahlete at rest. A athlete could have a heart rate below 60 BPM becauses they have a stronger and healthy heartEdit to add: Uhh ... While all of this may be true, the question is asking about a higher pulse pressure. Pulse pressure refers to the difference between systolic and diastolic pressure. Due primarily to decreases in the diastolic pressure observed in athletes, a resting athlete will have the higher *PULSE PRESSURE*.


What is a normal blood pressure reading?

The normal blood pressure is usually between 120-140 mm Hg (systolic) and 80 - 90 mm Hg (diastolic). Anything higher will be considered as high blood pressure


Is blood pressure the pressure of blood in the arteries?

Yes, blood pressure is a measure of the pressure exerted on your arterial walls as the heart pumps blood throughout the body (systolic) over the pressure when your heart is relaxed (diastolic).


Is the pulmonary circulation a high or low pressure circulation?

It is both: Higher pressure incoming and Lower pressure on the extruding end.


What is widening pulse pressure?

When diastolic blood pressure (the lower BP number) is subtracted from the systolic blood pressure (the higher BP number), and the value is 60 or more, there is a widened pulse pressure. With persistently widened pulse pressures, individuals are at increased risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular (stroke) events.

How does pressure affect the temperature at which water boils?

There is a direct relationship between the temperature at which water boils and the air pressure on it. Higher pressure, higher boiling point. Lower pressure, lower boiling point.

What is the relationship between the temperature and the pressure of gas?

If the temperature is low, then the molecules of the gas have less kinetic energy and thus it has low pressure. If the temperature is higher, then the molecules have more energy and thus the gas has higher pressure

What is the relationship between atmospheric pressure and depth?

The deeper you go, the more air is above you ... thus higher air pressure.


What is the relationship between TDS and osmotic pressure?

TDS increases the osmotic pressure. From the formula, Osmotic pressure = CRT. C as the concentration in mol / L; R = gas constant; T = temperature. The higher the concentration of the solids, the higher is its osmotic pressure.


Is there more of a concern when the diastolic blood pressure is higher than 80?

Yes. The diastolic pressure represents to hearts ability to rest in between beats. A high number is 90 or higher.
