Altitude affects the temperature of the area
Higher the altitude,lower the temperature.
The closer molecules are packed together, the more likely they are to collide.
Collisions between molecules give off heat, which warms the air.
At higheraltitudes, the air is less dense and air molecules are more spread out and less likely to collide.
example : Ooty is a place near equator in India but still is a hill station due to its height.
