How is blood pressure in the body affected by exercise
A.)systolic pressure increases, diastolic pressure decreases
B.)systolic pressure decreases, diastolic pressure remains constant
C.)systolic pressure increases, diastolic pressure remains constant
D.) systolic pressure remains constant, diastolic pressure increases

The blood pressure in the body is affected by exercise due to the systolic pressure increases, whereas the diastolic pressure remains constant (Option C).

Blood pressure is determined both by the force of the blood pushing against the walls of the arteries and the amount of blood the heart pumps.

The first number of the blood pressure is known as systolic blood pressure, which measures the pressure when blood is ejected into the arteries.

A normal systolic blood pressure value is below 120 mm Hg.

The second number of the blood pressure is known as diastolic blood pressure, which measures the pressure exerted on the walls of the arteries when the heart beats.

A normal diastolic blood pressure value is less than 80 mmHg.

During physical exercise, the systolic pressure increases in order to push a higher amount of oxygen-rich blood to all cells of the body.

In conclusion, the blood pressure in the body is affected by exercise due to the systolic pressure increases, whereas the diastolic pressure remains constant (Option C).
