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.

What equation relates to flow pressure and resistance to define mean arterial pressure?

the equation for mean arterial pressure is MAP=(1/3) PP (pulse pressure) + Diastolic example: if someone's blood pressure is 125/65, then Pulse Pressure is 60 now that you have this info you can calculate MAP (mean arterial pressure) MAP= (1/3) 60 + 65 MAP= 85
