    There is a direct relation ship.
    When heart contracts to pump blood to farthest parts of body ( toes), it causes the pressure in the blood vessels to increase. If this pressure increases beyond certain limits, it causes hypertension. The heart beat is conveyed to the blood vessels all over the body. Where these vessels are superficial, we can feel the rythmic contractions of heart. This is known as pulse. If u count these beats per minute, this is the heart rate.

    not actually. there is no direct relation between blood pressure and heart rate. In normal human beings heart rate and BP both rise during exercise. In one disease in which there is some increase in pressure in the brain ( increased intracranial pressure) there is increase in BP and fall in HR, in pathological forms of hypertension (pheochromocytoma- a tumor of adrenal gland ) both HR and BP rise. so there is not a fixed relation between HR and BP.

    There is a reflex relationship between blood pressure and heart rate. There is a sensor in the carotid artery (blood vessel supplying oxygenated blood to the brain) which responds to increased blood pressure by sending signals to slow the heart rate.

    definitely,their is a relation.it is inverse.when press is high heart itself compensate by reducing it,s beating rate &vice versa.

    blood pressure means pressure exerted by blood on the walls of the heart.
    heart rate means no of beats of heart per min.

    blood pressure occurs when the bllod vessels are consrticted and the pressure of the blood on heart wall increases.
    increase in heart rate occurs when work load increases and during excercises.
    there is direct relation ship between those but, in some conditions occurs
