High altitude affects respiration because there is less oxygen in the air. Because of this, more and stronger breathing is needed to supply oxygen to the bloodstream.

Generally yes.

Why does sound travel more slowly in the air at high altitudes than low altitudes?

The air is thicker at lower altitudes, we know that sound travels much better when it can move through solid mass. As you climb, the air starts to get thinner. It becomes much more difficult to do anything at high altitudes, including keeping a plane aloft, keeping warm, and of course projecting sound.
