Answer:

As altitude increases, the amount of gas molecules in the air decreases—the air becomes less dense than air nearer to sea level. This is what meteorologists and mountaineers mean by "thin air." Thin air exerts less pressure than air at a lower altitude.

Explanation:

Higher altitudes have less pressure than planes and the air is thin that means the number of oxygen molecule present in air is less than the air of planes normally known as altitude sickness.

To compensate these decrease body adapted various methods. These are:-

The concentration of RBC increase which ultimately increases the haemoglobin concentration as it helps in carrying more oxygen.

The rate of breathing increase to get more oxygen.
