The diastolic blood pressure is Question 23 options: The pressure exerted by the blood on the blood vessel walls during relaxation of the ventricle The pressure exerted by the blood on the blood vessel walls before relaxation of the ventricle The pressure exerted by the blood on the ventricle wall during relaxation of the ventricle The pressure exerted by the blood on the veins during relaxation of the ventricle The pressure exerted by the blood on the atria wall during relaxation of the ventricle

Diastolic pressure is a measure of the pressure when a. the left ventricle is relaxing b. the right ventricle is contracting c. the SA node is firing d. blood is flowing rapidly through the aorta e. there is peak flow through the systemic circulation

Diastolic arterial blood pressure is the pressure in the arteries at the time of cardiac diastole. Another way of saying this is that the diastolic blood pressure is the ______ (Diastole: the phase of the heartbeat when the heart muscle relaxes and allows the chambers to fill with blood). minimum pressure present in the arteries. maximum pressure present in the arteries. pressure in the ateries when the ventricles contract. pressure in the arteries during the ventricular contraction over the pressure in the arteries during ventricular relaxation.
