Why does the level of oxygen decreases on high mountain?

The level of oxygen decreases on high mountains because the air pressure decreases as altitude increases. This decrease in air pressure results in lower oxygen content for each breath taken at high elevations, making it harder for the body to get enough oxygen.


Where on earth is atmospheric pressure greatest?

The atmospheric pressure is greatest at sea level, which is at the Earth's surface. As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases.


As height above sea level increases what happens to the air temperatures on Earth?

As height above sea level increases, generally the air temperature decreases at a rate of about 1 degree Celsius per 100 meters due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure. This is known as the lapse rate.


How does atmospheric pressure change with height above sea level?

Atmospheric pressure is the weight of the air above the surface of the earth. As elevation increases, there is less air above the location and the pressure is lower. At sea level the column of air above the area is greater.?æ


Why does sea level rise and fall during inter glacial and glacial periods?

Sea level rises and falls during glacial and interglacial periods due to changes in the volume of ice stored on land. During glacial periods, glaciers and ice sheets expand, drawing water from the oceans and lowering sea level. In contrast, during interglacial periods, these ice masses melt and contribute water to the oceans, causing sea levels to rise.

Is atmospheric pressure higher on a mountain or sea level?

The answer is sea level. Because atmospheric pressure decreases when altitude increases


How does the level of oxygen change as altitude increases?

As altitude increases, the level of oxygen decreases. This is because the air becomes thinner at higher altitudes, leading to lower oxygen concentrations.


As a ball falls downward what energy decreases and what energy increases?

As a ball fall downwards, it's velocity continuously increases, therefore the kinetic energy increases. As the height from the ground level decreases, the potential energy decreases. Further, the total mechanical energy remains constant throughout the motion.


What is Stomatal Density?

Number of stomata per unit area decreases as CO2 level increases.

What hormone do the parathyroid grands secrete and what does this hormone do?

Parathyroid glands secrete Parathamone hormone.It increases the Calcium level and decreases Phosphate level.


What is the relationship between the level of water in a tank and the corresponding air pressure in the tank?

The level of water in a tank directly affects the air pressure in the tank. As the water level increases, the air pressure also increases because the weight of the water exerts more force on the air in the tank. Conversely, as the water level decreases, the air pressure decreases as well.


What happens to boiling point above sea level?

As you go above sea level, the atmospheric pressure decreases, and so the boiling point also decreases to below 100ºC.


How does size change in a period and in a group?

Atomic size decreases across a period as the effective nuclear charge increases. Atomic size increases down a group as the energy level (shells) increases.
