B.

Systolic is the blood pressure measurement of the pressure wave (It's not actually the force of the heart pumping), during a contraction, or when blood is being pumped out of the ventricles. As the heart relaxes between contractions and fills with blood the resulting pressure wave is recorded as Diastolic. In most normal cases the systolic should be much higher the diastolic pressure.

What is a necessary element of every effective physical activity action plan​
lana [24]

Evaluating your skills is a key component to a successful physical activity action plan. Assessing yourself through physical tests (e.g. weight and girth measurements) could give you an idea what exactly you want to happen in your training program. Aside from knowing your structure, you should also assess yourself if you are fit enough or you have certain medical conditions that would prohibit you from performing certain activities (e.g. high blood pressure, hypertension). 

In doing so, you not only ensure the success of your training action plan, but you also secured your safety before executing the activities you assigned for yourself.
