Answer:

Low blood pressure

Step-by-step explanation:

In the general circulation, the highest blood pressure is found in the aorta and the lowest blood pressure is in the vena cava. As this suggests, blood pressure drops in the general circulation as it goes from the aorta to the rest of the body.
