How do vertical climate zones affect vegetation on a mountain?

For example, Mount Everest is a very cold place so less vegetation is likely to grow there. Especially Mount Everest is located at a very high elevation so that is another reason.'Climate Zones' is another term that is used to describe the entire Biosphere of an environment. This translates, in the specific cases of [vertical or horizontal] climate zones, into how varying Climates affect the related Ecosystems.As concerns elevation, there is a well defined rate-of-cooling-of-the-Air as elevation increases - something like minus 6 degrees C per 1 kilometer of Rise. In Meteorology this is known as "The Adiabatic Lapse Rate".{Proof: Airliners travel at an altitude of 9 km: 9*(-6)= -54 C, which is the temperature outside of the in-transit airliner.}
