Baroreceptors
The kidneys, heart, blood vessels, and brain are involved in the feedback mechanism that regulates blood pressure. The kidneys help control blood volume and release hormones that affect blood pressure, while the heart adjusts its rate and strength of contraction. Blood vessels can constrict or dilate to regulate blood flow, and the brain receives signals and sends instructions to maintain blood pressure homeostasis.

No, systolic pressure is the highest pressure against the walls of the blood vessels. Diastolic pressure is the lowest pressure against the walls of the blood vessels.
The tissue in blood vessels is called elastic tissue as it have to control the pressure in blood and have to contract and relax to create a specific pressure so that every organ should receive blood.
The pressure that forces fluid from vessels into tissues is called hydrostatic pressure. This pressure is created by the heart pumping blood through the blood vessels, causing fluid to be pushed out of the vessels and into the surrounding tissues.
The medulla oblongata, specifically the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), is involved in regulating the baroreceptor reflex. The NTS receives input from baroreceptors located in blood vessels, helping to control blood pressure and heart rate.
The main purpose of a pressure vessel is to hold gases or liquids at a pressure inside a container different to the pressure outside of the pressure vessel. Usually pressure vessels are made from steel.
Baroreceptors are the control mechanisms that detect changes in blood pressure and help regulate it. When there is a rapid rise in blood pressure, baroreceptors signal the body to lower blood pressure by dilating blood vessels and reducing the heart rate.
The systolic pressure is the highest pressure measured against the walls of blood vessels.
For pressure point bleeding control, you should put direct pressure on a pressure point, an area where blood vessels run close to the surface, usually at a point where a pulse can be found.Common pressure points:Arm between shoulder and elbow - brachial arteryGroin area along bikini line - femoral arteryBehind the knee - popliteal artery
