Yes mountains are higher than plateaus
if the precipitation is higher than the p/Ep then the climate is humid. if the precipitation is lower than the P/Ep then the climate is arid.
Because they are higher up in the sky. The taller the mountains are, the colder they get.
Many mountains are higher, especially in the Himalayas, where mountains in that range extend to over 30,000 feet (Kili is only 19,300). Kilimanjaro is, however, the highest point in Africa.
Altitude affects the temperature and precipitation patterns in tropical climate. As altitude increases, the temperature decreases, leading to cooler conditions at higher elevations. This can result in a variation of vegetation and ecosystems at different altitudes. Additionally, higher altitudes can trigger orographic precipitation, where moist air is forced to rise over mountains, resulting in increased rainfall on the windward side and a rain shadow effect on the leeward side.
Mountains have two effects on precipitation. These are the rain shadow effect and the orographic effect. These both cause the type and amount of precipitation to change because the air is forced higher up.
Yes. Mountains get snow because at higher elevations most of the precipitation is falling in below-freezing temperatures. Mountains create precipitation as moist air is forced up their slopes into the colder temperatures at higher altitude, where the air cannot hold as much water vapor.
mountains get higher as the sea level lowers

Biome with higher temperatures and less precipitation tend to have what?
It is colder
The Rockies are higher at 14,440 feet, the Appalachians are 3,000 feet
Yes mountains are higher than plateaus
Acid precipitation weather rocks faster than normal precipitation because acid precipitation has a higher concentration of acid than normal precipitation.
Higher elevation. Ridges separate rivers, which at their most elemental level are runoff (from springs or precipitation). As patterns of runoff converge, permanent streams form.
No ther are not mountains that get higher by the earths crust
Yes, mountains can be higher than 600 feet.
