What does diastolic pressure indicate?

Pressure during heart contraction
Pressure as the heart relaxes
Pressure within the muscles
Pressure in the lungs during breathing

The correct answer is: Pressure as the heart relaxes

Diastolic pressure indicates the pressure in the arteries when the heart is resting and filling with blood between beats. Option A is incorrect because it describes systolic pressure, which is the pressure in the arteries when the heart contracts. Option C is incorrect because it does not pertain to blood pressure. Option D is incorrect because it refers to lung pressure, not blood pressure. In summary, diastolic pressure is the measure of blood pressure when the heart is relaxed and filling with blood.
