buttress
The support structure you are referring to is called a buttress. Buttresses are typically made of stone or concrete and are built adjacent to the wall, providing additional support and stability to the structure. They help to distribute the weight of the arch, vault, or ceiling and prevent the wall from buckling or collapsing due to the pressure.

Active pressure is the lateral pressure exerted by the soil on a retaining wall or structure. It occurs when the soil is compacted or dense and is prone to pushing against the wall or structure. Active pressure increases with the height of the wall or structure and the angle of repose of the soil.
Lateral pressure is the force exerted by a fluid, such as water or soil, against a structure or surface perpendicular to the direction of its flow. It is important in the design and analysis of retaining walls, dams, and other structures that need to withstand the pressure exerted by surrounding materials.

Diastolic pressure
Yes. The systolic is the pressure exerted against the artey walls when the heart beats.
The pressure exerted against the cell membrane and cell wall is known as turgor pressure. It is generated by the osmotic flow of water into the cell, causing the cell to become rigid and maintain its shape.
The force exerted against the arterial walls when the heart contracts is called blood pressure. It is typically represented by two numbers: systolic pressure (when the heart is contracting) and diastolic pressure (when the heart is relaxed). This pressure is essential for moving blood throughout the body.
Pressure in a fluid is exerted in all directions. This is due to the fluid molecules pushing against each other and the surfaces of the container. The pressure at any point is equal in all directions within the fluid.
Plant cells require turgor pressure to maintain their structure and function. Turgor pressure is the pressure exerted by the fluid content within the cell against the cell wall. It helps provide support and rigidity to the plant.
