Answer

$\therefore$ Pressure will increase (i.e $\textbf P\uparrow$).

Work Step by Step

As per the Continuity Equation, $$A×V=Const$$ $$A∝\frac{1}{V}$$ Since a hemoglobin molecule moves from the narrow region into the wider region, the area (i.e $\textbf A\uparrow)$ increases, therefore Speed $\textbf V\downarrow$ will decrease, and pressure will increase (i.e $\textbf P\uparrow$).
