An altitude zone is a region in a mountainous area characterized by specific vegetation and climate conditions based on the elevation above sea level. Different altitude zones, such as foothills, montane, subalpine, and alpine, support distinct plant and animal life adapted to the conditions of that zone.
The tropical zone (at low altitude).
The death zone is called so because the high altitude and low oxygen levels can be fatal to climbers. Above a certain altitude, typically around 26,000 feet, the body's ability to acclimatize decreases significantly, leading to a higher risk of altitude sickness, cerebral edema, and ultimately death. These extreme conditions make it very challenging for climbers to survive in this zone without supplemental oxygen.
Medium altitude refers to the range of altitudes typically between 2,000 and 7,000 meters above sea level. It is a zone in the atmosphere where weather patterns, atmospheric conditions, and cloud formations can vary significantly. Aircraft flying at medium altitudes usually experience smoother air compared to lower altitudes.
The altitude of the jetliner is 6 miles.
Because pressure decreases as you go up in altitude and increases when you go down in altitude. Hope this helped!

The tropical zone (at low altitude).
Temperatures and precipitation tend to vary with altitude in mountain climates. As altitude increases, temperatures usually decrease, leading to unique climate patterns and precipitation regimes in mountainous regions. This results in diverse ecosystems and weather conditions at different elevations.
The five altitude zones common in Latin America are: Tierra Caliente: The lowest zone, characterized by hot and tropical climate. Tierra Templada: A moderate zone with cooler temperatures and diverse vegetation. Tierra Fria: A colder zone with temperate climate and vegetation such as pine forests. Tierra Helada: A high-altitude zone with cold temperatures and limited vegetation. Tierra Nevada: The highest zone, characterized by permanent snow and ice.

With a high elevation of 2,240 meters (7,349 feet) above sea level, it is on the temperate or 'Tierra templada' zone.
It is known as "Tierra Fria" (Cold Land).
The death zone is called so because the high altitude and low oxygen levels can be fatal to climbers. Above a certain altitude, typically around 26,000 feet, the body's ability to acclimatize decreases significantly, leading to a higher risk of altitude sickness, cerebral edema, and ultimately death.
