Answer:
The proportion of dust in the water vapour , heavy gases, etc. is higher in the air closer to the surface of the earth. this proportion decreases with increasing altitude. as one moves higher and higher from the surface of the earth, the air becomes thinner and thinner. as a result, the air pressure decreases with increasing altitude.
