Answer:

Although the best-known cause of a mass extinction is the asteroid impact that killed off the non-avian dinosaurs, in fact, volcanic activity seems to have wreaked much more havoc on Earth's biota. Volcanic activity is implicated in at least four mass extinctions, while an asteroid is a suspect in just one.

Roman55 [17]
The response that is most accurate is that; with age, your arteries lose their elasticity and are replaced with collagen, which makes your arteries stiffer. Systolic hypertension or pressure is an elevated systolic blood pressure. If the systolic blood pressure is elevated (above 140) with a normal (<90) diastolic blood pressure, it is called the isolated systolic hypertension.
