Normal blood pressure is defined as reading(s) below which threshold?
<120/<80 mmHg
<130/<85 mmHg
<140/90 mmHg
<110/70 mmHg
Reveal Answer
Correct Answer:
<120/<80 mmHg
Explanation:
Normal blood pressure means both numbers stay below their respective cutoffs: systolic under 120 and diastolic under 80. The threshold used to define normal is 120/80, so readings below that on both values are considered normal. Higher values indicate elevated or hypertensive ranges, not normal. A number like 110/70 would also be normal because it's below the threshold, but the standard cutoff being tested is 120/80.
