Are areas with a high elevation cold or warm?
Due to the thin air at higher elevations, temperatures are generally cooler.
Is air pressure greater at the top of a mountain than at the lower elevations?
No, it is greater at the lower elevations.
How high do hot air balloons go up?
they contain helium molecules which are lighter than the air we breath making the balloons rise
Why are oxygen masks nessesary when flying at high altitudes?
Oxygen masks are needed at higher altitude because the air is less dense, therefore less air molecules are getting into your lungs when you breath.
How does air density in the thermosphere change?
As you go though the atmoshpere, the density of the air decreases. This means the gas molecules that make up the atmosphere are farther apart at high altitudes then they are at sea level. Noah Bazoo
There are molecules of air at high elevations so air pressure is less?
To fill in the blank, there are FEWER molecules of air at high elevation....
Which characteristic of places at high elevations?
fewer molecules in the air
What is a characteristic of places at high elevations?
Low air pressure.
How many molecules of air at high elevation's so air pressure is less?
fewer
What does at high elevations mean?
It means something is high in the air. A good example of this is a in-flight airplane at a high elevation.

What is a factor that explains why low elevations have denser air than high elevations?
The higher you go the lower the temperature gets resulting in particles in the air moving slower and spacing themselves apart farther.
What is the atmosphere like in higher elevations?
The air is thinner than air in lower elevations.
How was life in the Andes mountains difficult?
it is difficult because many of the high mountain slopes are rocky and steep. the climate is cold. A lack of oxgen in the air at high elevations makes breathing difficult
Are areas with a high elevation cold or warm?
Due to the thin air at higher elevations, temperatures are generally cooler.
Is air made of molecules?
Yes. Air is a mixture of many gas molecules.
How does the air pressure affect the distance between the air molecules?
because of high
