Question

what does diastolic blood pressure measure? the force exerted by blood on venous walls during ventricular relaxation the force exerted by blood on arterial walls during ventricular contraction the force exerted by blood on arterial walls during ventricular relaxation the force exerted by blood on venous walls during ventricular contraction

Explanation:

Diastolic blood pressure measures the pressure in arteries when the heart is at rest between beats, i.e., during ventricular relaxation. It is the force exerted by blood on arterial walls during this period.

Answer:

The force exerted by blood on arterial walls during ventricular relaxation
