If you mean Systemic & Pulmonary, that's because they're separate systems.

If you mean systolic & diastolic, then they're not different;

they represent highest and lowest pressure of each stroke of the heart.

What is the measure of the force of blood called?

The measure of the force of blood is called blood pressure. It is typically measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and consists of two values - systolic pressure (when the heart is contracting) and diastolic pressure (when the heart is relaxing).


What are the two kinds of types of barometers?

The two main types of barometers are mercury barometers, which use a column of mercury to measure air pressure, and aneroid barometers, which use a small metal box that expands or contracts with changes in pressure to indicate atmospheric pressure.


What are two types of regions in a compressional wave?

The two types of regions in a compressional wave are compression regions, where particles are close together and experience high pressure, and rarefaction regions, where particles are spread apart and experience low pressure.


What are the classes of manometer?

Manometers can be classified into two main types: mercury (fluid column) manometers and pressure-sensing element manometers. Mercury manometers use the height of a mercury column to measure pressure, while pressure-sensing element manometers use a diaphragm, Bourdon tube, or bellows to measure pressure.


How is blood pressor messuresd?

Blood pressure is typically measured using a device called a sphygmomanometer. This device consists of an inflatable cuff that is placed around the upper arm, a pressure gauge or digital monitor to measure the pressure, and a stethoscope to listen to blood flow. The measurement is given as two numbers, systolic pressure (the higher number) and diastolic pressure (the lower number), measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).

What are the two blood pressure measures called?

Blood pressure is the amount of blood per section of your blood vessels. You have two different readings because blood pressure varies; for example, your blood pressure is higher after heavy exercise due to the fact that your heart is pumping blood faster.
