You dont breathe air pressure. You breathe air.
It is harder to breathe because of the low air pressure due to the higher elavation.

Where would the air pressure be the greatest around a mountain?
Air pressure decrease with altitude thus the air pressure is the greatest at the mountain base.
Why is air pressure on a high mountain is less than on the lowland?
air pressure on the high mountain is because air flow is fast or velocity of air is more on the high mountain
What should a person expect to happen to the air pressure as they move from the base of a mountain to the top of the mountain?
As you move from the bottom to the top of the mountain, the air pressure decreases.
Why does the top of a mountain have greater air pressure?
It doesn't. Pressure is lower at the top of a mountain because there is less air weighing down on top of it.
How is air pressure different from the top of the mountain vs the bottom of a mountain?
well a moutian if it is tall enough can reach the sky and air pressure their is 0
Why is the air at the top of a mountain hard to breathe?
The air pressure decreases, meaning that the partial pressure of oxygen is also lower. By 16,000 feet (5000 m), there is only about one-half the pressure as at sea level.
When you climb a mountain you get out of breathe easily because?
there is less air pressure and the air is thinner so you need to breath in more of it then normal
Why do you need to breathe faster at the top of a tall mountain?
the air is thinner the higher up you go so it is harder to breathe. That's why there are pressurized cabins on airplanes because you wouldn't be able to breathe without the pressure keeping the air inside
Why is it hard to breathe in thin air?
because its hard to breathe thin air above earths surface, the higher you go its hard to breathe oxygen.
Where would the air pressure be the greatest around a mountain?
Air pressure decrease with altitude thus the air pressure is the greatest at the mountain base.
Why is air pressure on a high mountain is less than on the lowland?
air pressure on the high mountain is because air flow is fast or velocity of air is more on the high mountain
What means to find it hard to breathe?
Hard to take in air
How do astronauts breathe on the space station?
They breathe artificial "air" that is almost the same as the air on Earth. It is made up of 21% oxygen and 78% nitrogen similar to the air we breathe and it is at a pressure of 14.7psi which is the same as the atmospheric pressure on earth.
How do astronauts breathe in the space shuttle?
They breathe artificial "air" that is almost the same as the air on Earth. It is made up of 20% oxygen and 80% nitrogen similar to the air we breathe and it is at a pressure of 14.7psi which is the same as the atmospheric pressure on earth.
Why is it hard to breathe in a high place?
because the air is thinner the higher the altitude is.
What should a person expect to happen to the air pressure as they move from the base of a mountain to the top of the mountain?
As you move from the bottom to the top of the mountain, the air pressure decreases.
Where would air pressure be the highest on a mountain?
At the base of the mountain.
