Gravity attracts each and every object on surface.
Oxygen is also having some weight.
Hence, because of gravity, Oxygen is mostly pulled to surface and available at surface.
As you go up, the quantity of gases decreases.
Thus, Atmospheric Pressure Decreases With Height.

Answer:
Atmospheric pressure decreases as the height of a surface above ground level increases. This is because, as the altitude increases: the number of air molecules decreases. the weight of the air decreases.
