Systolic pressure is measured when the heart beats and the muscles are contracted. Diastolic Pressure is to measure the pressure on blood vessels when the muscles of the heart are relaxing.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Blood pressure is the pressure that is put on blood vessels and the heart muscles when it is pumping blood. The blood pressure can be categorized as high and low. Both of them come with medical consequence and require attention and treatment.

The measurement of blood pressure contains two values:

Systolic Blood Pressure: When the blood is being pumped through the heart, a certain amount of pressure is applied on the arteries and contracted muscles of the heart. The pressure is measured to check if a person has a risks of heart strokes or attacks as well as kidney failures.

Diastolic Blood Pressure: When the blood is being pumped through the heart, a certain amount of pressure is applied on the blood vessels when the muscles are relaxing. The pressure is measured to prevent lack of oxygen that may cause severe damage to brain, heart and normal functionality of the individual.

Material speed of light

The question is poor. Light doesn't refract on its way THROUGH anything. It refracts at the boundary BETWEEN two different media. The effect is greatest where the ratio of the speeds of light in the two media is greatest. On your list, that would be at the boundary between air or space and glass.
