Final answer:

High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a condition where blood exerts excessive force against artery walls, potentially causing severe health issues.


Explanation:

High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, occurs when the force of blood against artery walls is too high. This condition can lead to severe health complications such as heart disease and stroke. Blood pressure is measured with two numbers: systolic pressure (during heart muscle contraction) and diastolic pressure (when the heart is at rest).
