Click on all of the true statements about blood pressure. Increasing blood volume decreases blood pressure. Decreasing heart rate decreases blood pressure. Blood pressure decreases with distance from the heart. Low blood pressure can cause health problems. Pressure receptors in artery walls detect blood pressure. Vasodilation increases blood pressure.

00:01 Hello everyone, in this question we have been said to click on all the true statements about blood pressure.

00:07 So, here first option says that there is increasing blood volume that will decrease the blood pressure.

00:18 So, basically this here is incorrect.

00:22 The blood volume affects the blood pressure.

00:25 So, when there is greater volume of fluid, more fluid presses against the walls of arteries resulting in higher pressure.

00:34 Then the next option says that there is if decrease in the heart rate then there will be decrease in the blood pressure.

00:45 So, this here is true.

00:48 So, it is seen that when there is decrease in heart rate that means the blood flow here is less and that is why the pressure that is applied on the arteries is less.

01:00 So, that is why this here is true.

01:03 Then the next option says that blood pressure decreases with the distance from the heart.

01:11 So, this here is true.

01:14 The blood pressure with distance from the heart decreases.

01:18 As the mean blood pressure decreases as circulating blood moves away from the heart to arteries, capillaries and veins due to the viscous loss of energy.

01:30 That means blood pressure decreases during circulation although most of the decrease occurs along the small arteries and arterioles...
