blood pressure is normal. Blood pressure is measured in two numbers. Systolic and diastolic pressures are evaluated into a ratio to make up a person’s blood pressure. Systolic pressures are usually the larger number that is placed as the numerator of the fractional radio. It measures the pressure that is produced in the arteries when the heart muscle contracts. Diastolic pressures are usually the smaller number that is placed as the denominator of the fractional ratio. It measures the pressure…
is getting 200 likes on a picture, it is difficult to be and think for yourself. Peer pressure is very common throughout the world, and is making people more susceptible to mistakes. Rules are enforced all around the world, and everyone must apply these rules in order to prevent any kind of punishments. Many outside sources prevent people from achieving their full potential to think for themselves. Peer pressure comes in many different ways, but due to the amounts of negative impacts it has on…
experiment was to show how the cardiovascular system is affected by reclining or standing position and light exercise. The average reclining systolic pressure is 116.2 mmHg, and the average standing systolic pressure is 115.9 mmHg. The standard deviation for reclining systolic pressure was 8.2, and the standard deviation for standing systolic pressure is 12.3. The average reclining heart rate is 69.1 beats per minute, and the average standing heart rate is 82.9 beats per minute. The standard…
Hypertension can be defined as persistent continuous raise of both diastolic and systolic pressures. Any systolic pressure of 140 mm Hg and a diastolic of 90 mm Hg and above is regarded as hypertension. For one to make a diagnosis of hypertension three different readings need to be obtained in different settings (Bothe, 2014). This paper discusses hypertension as a disorder and its process when it affects someone, its relation to the HFSON conceptual framework including the integration of the…
This article looks at how gender stereotypes are challenged by children and adolescence by addressing the conditions in which individuals found it acceptable to reject gender-stereotypic expectations and examining how children conceptualized the costs (Mulvey & Killen, 2015, pg. 683). Past studies show that children’s knowledge of gender stereotypes emerges during preschool and that interaction with teachers and peers can influence segregation of gender in playtime activities (Mulvey & Killen,…
rather than family. During this stage of life peer pressure can be a challenge in most individuals. Although, many think of peer pressure as a negative aspect of life, it can have many positive effects like positive peer association; as well as empathy and social initiative. There are two types of peer pressure, one being direct and the other being indirect peer association. They both play a huge part when it comes to positive peer pressure. In order to identify how these play a factor…
High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a condition in which the force of the blood against the artery walls is high enough that it can eventually cause health problems. When the heart beats, is crates pressure that pushes blood through the arteries. Blood pressure is the result of this “push”, or force. There are two forces; one occurs when the blood pumps out of the heart and into the arteries and the second occurs as the heart rests between beats. These two forces each represent the numbers…
Congestive Heart Failure Heart failure is a progressive and chronic condition that occurs when the heart muscle is weak and unable to pump adequate blood in order to meet the need of the body for blood and oxygen (AHA, 2014). There are two types of Heart failure namely Left sided and right sided heart failure. According to Moore & Roth (2015), left-sided heart failure occurs when the left ventricle failed to pump proficiently. It prevents the body from receiving adequate oxygen-rich blood. The…
