What effect will a large increase in blood volume have on blood pressure, in a blood vessel with a high compliance as compared to one with low compliance?

Blood pressure will rise more in blood vessels with lesser compliance as a result.

What is blood pressure?

Blood pressure (BP) is the force exerted by moving blood against blood vessel walls. The heart's action of pumping blood through the circulatory system is mostly responsible for this pressure. The pressure in the major arteries is meant when the word "blood pressure" is used without qualifier. Systolic pressure, or the highest pressure during one heartbeat, is typically stated as the ratio of diastolic pressure, or the lowest pressure between two heartbeats, in blood pressure measurements. It is expressed as a millimeter of mercury (mmHg) above the air pressure in the immediate vicinity.

Along with respiratory rate, heart rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature, blood pressure is one of the vital signs that medical practitioners consider when assessing a patient's health. An adult's normal resting blood pressure is about 120 millimeters of mercury.
