Expert Solution
Step 1

Blood pressure can be defined as the lateral pressure extended by the flowing blood on the walls of the blood vessels (specially the arteries).

Normal systolic blood pressure in an adult is in a range of 105-135 mmHg and the normal diastolic blood pressure in an adult is about 70 mmHg.
