Like any other gas, air expands when it is heated. As the heat rises and the air spreads out, pressure decreases. this because pressure is the amount of force exerted on a specific area. Therefore, as gas spreads, it pushes less and over a larger area. so.... when heated by the sun, air pressure would technically decrease

What replaces heated air at the equator?
Cool Air! As the heated air rises the heated air starts getting cool. This is because the higher the air is the colder it gets. Then the heated air will be replaced with cold air. As the cold air then comes down near the ground the cool air will become heated because of the sun. Heated Air - Cool Air - Cold Air And On And On It Goes
When happens when cooler air and heated air interact?
