Answer 1

Increases at wake up and further increases in the day time.

Step-by-step explanation:

The blood pressure increases when someone gets up in the morning. Blood pressure increases when a person wake up due to normal circadian rhythm of the body. Blood pressure of our body decreases during sleeping whereas when a person wakeup, its blood pressure increases and further increases in the day. Then in afternoon and evening, your blood pressure begins to decrease again.
