At high altitude, organisms are in a lower oxygen environment. This means their hemoglobin (and therefore blood) is less oxygenated and less oxygen is reaching vital organs and tissues. As a result, metabolic rate (which is dependent on oxygen) decreases. Cellular respiration is inhibited and ATP (energy) production is limited. Thus, fermentation rates increase in order to oxidize NADH (to NAD+) to continue glycolysis (glucose catabolism). Fermentation increases amounts of lactic acid which lower the pH of the cells, which further hinders oxygen's ability to bind to hemoglobin (the Bohr shift).
To compensate for these inconveniences, animals at high altitude often have a higher p50: they require less oxygen pressure to load oxygen on to hemoglobin and oxygenate their blood. By doing this, they increase their affinity for oxygen to bind. However, this is a long-term adaptation. Short-term adaptations include increasing blood flow, producing more red blood cells, and decreasing blood pH (in order to counteract hyperventilation: breathing deeply to get more oxygen, but detrimentally making blood more basic as a result).
Mountain goats adapt to the mountain side by having hooves designed for gripping surfaces that are not stable. They also have excellent muscles and legs designed for jumping which makes them very balanced on a mountain.
Mountains are high up, so it must be cold. The animals that live up there probably have thick fur to keep them warm, I hope I helped.
They have camouflaged fur, and some such as mountain lions and mountain goats are good climbers. they sleep in cracks and caves in the side of the mountain.
Animals will need to have padded footing or paws and thick fur as mountains can reach up very high.
The animals in the Himalayas have adapted in a few different ways. These animals have thicker fur and need less oxygen.
Animals that have adapted to cold weather, oxygen reduction, and less available food. Usually, these animals are hardier, stronger, and healthier.
Shoes.
There are no mountain lions or any other animals found in the Antarctic. It's too cold on the Antarctic continent for land-based animals to survive in the wild.
Yaks are primarily mountain or plateau animals and are designed to resist cold and are not really desert animals.
Because all different animals and plants have their own different , special feature which helps them survive in the mountains.
Animals that live on a mountain
They survive in different habitats. Animals with hair can survive in cold and warm places, and animals without hair survive in warm places.
You survive by using what ever you can find in the forest, to survive.
how do animals survive in thier different habitat
how do animals survive in thier different habitat
Yes. Some animals can survive with no water.

The animals drink the toliet water to survive
They survive by living.
