Solution

The correct option is B 120/80
Systolic pressure refers to the maximum pressure within the large arteries when the heart muscle contracts to propel blood through the body. Diastolic pressure is the lowest pressure within the large arteries during heart muscle relaxation between beating. The blood pressure of an adult human is 120/80.
