BP refers to what term?

  1. Biased protocol

  2. Blood pressure

  3. Bootstrap protocol

  4. Breaking point

The correct answer is: Blood pressure

"BP" typically refers to "blood pressure" and is a common measurement used in medicine to determine the force of blood against the walls of the arteries. Although there are abbreviations for "biased protocol," "bootstrap protocol," and "breaking point," these are not as commonly used as "blood pressure" and therefore less likely to be referenced as the term "BP."
