Explanation / Answer

Pulse pressure is calculated as systolic pressure minus diastolic pressure and indicates the additional pressure of artery when ventricles are contracting.

Systolic pressure is the pressure in arteries at the peak of ventricular contraction while diastolic pressure is the pressure in arteries during ventricular relaxation.

MAP can be calculated as diastolic pressure plus one third the pulse pressure because the ventricle spend more time in diastole.

Blood pressure is the force per unit area exerted on a blood vessel wall by the blood and it fluctuates with the alternating contraction and relaxation of the ventricle.
