As you go up the mountain air pressure decreases so air gets thinner making it little bit difficult to breathe. That is why mountaineers carry oxygen cylinders with them if they want to climb really high peaks like Mt. Everest or Alps mountains. We are able to breather air without any difficulties at sea - level where the atmospheric pressure is 1 atm.

WHAT Is the difference between stratosphere and mesosphere?
The stratosphere's temperature increases as altitude increases. The mesosphere's temperature decreases as it's altitude increases. This is helpful
What happens as the altitude of the sun increases?
As the altitude of the sun increases, the intensity of sunlight reaching the Earth's surface increases, leading to higher temperatures. This can result in warmer weather and more direct sunlight which is why midday tends to be the warmest part of the day.
Does the temperature in the troposphere increase as the altitude increases?
No, the temperature in the troposphere decreases as the altitude increases.
What layer of the atmosphere temperatures increase as altitude increases?
In the atmosphere, temperatures increase with altitude in the stratosphere. This layer, which lies above the troposphere, contains the ozone layer that absorbs and scatters ultraviolet solar radiation, leading to a warming effect as altitude increases. Consequently, the stratosphere experiences a temperature inversion, contrasting with the troposphere, where temperatures typically decrease with altitude.
Why does the air become less dense as the altitude increases?
Because there is less air above, pushing down.
WHAT Is the difference between stratosphere and mesosphere?
The stratosphere's temperature increases as altitude increases. The mesosphere's temperature decreases as it's altitude increases. This is helpful
What decreases as altitude increases?
Air pressure decreases as altitude increases, meaning there is less atmospheric pressure exerted on the surroundings. Additionally, air density decreases with altitude, leading to lower oxygen levels and making it harder to breathe. Temperature also tends to decrease with altitude due to the thinner atmosphere.
What happens to atmospheric pressure as altitude increases?
As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases.
Which decreases as altitude increases?
As altitude increases pressure and temperature decrease.
How do air pressure density and the amount of oxygen change as you change altitude?
As altitude increases, air pressure decreases because there are fewer air molecules pressing down from above. This decrease in air pressure also leads to a decrease in air density. Additionally, the amount of oxygen decreases as altitude increases, making it harder to breathe at higher altitudes.
Does air pressure change as altitude increases?
Yes, air pressure decreases as altitude increases.
What happens to your planes altitude if you do a chandelle?
Altitude increases.
Do you get denser when you gain altitude?
No, you do not get denser when you gain altitude. In fact, air density decreases as altitude increases due to reduced pressure and gravity. This is why it can be harder to breathe at higher altitudes.
Is it true air pressure increases as altitude increases?
No
What happens as the altitude of the sun increases?
As the altitude of the sun increases, the intensity of sunlight reaching the Earth's surface increases, leading to higher temperatures. This can result in warmer weather and more direct sunlight which is why midday tends to be the warmest part of the day.
How does air pressure change when altitude increases?
As altitude increases, the air pressure decreases. This is because the higher you go in the atmosphere, the fewer air molecules there are above you exerting pressure downwards. This is why it can be more difficult to breathe at high altitudes.
What will happen to the atmospheric pressure as the altitude increases?
Atmospheric pressure will decrease as altitude increases.
