Air is made of ____________________ and therefore air has a mass . The force of ____________________ pulls the air molecules ____________________ .

Air pressure is like a human pyramid because both have more matter at the ____________________ and less matter at the top . A human pyramid and air pressure also have more pressure at the bottom and less at the ____________________ as the weight of the matter pushes down .

Your ears may ____________________ as you change altitudes because the air pressure inside your head and outside your head is ____________________ and has to balance out .

It is harder to ____________________ at the ____________________ of a mountain because there is ____________________ air pressure and therefore less oxygen to breathe .


Air pressure is greater with ____________________ altitude because there are more air ____________________ pushing downward due to the force of gravity , making the air more dense .

Air pressure ____________________ the higher into the atmosphere you go .

Lastly , molecules hold and transfer heat . If there are less molecules at the top of a mountain , the ____________________ at the top of the mountain will be much ____________________ .
