Which statement about atmospheric pressure near Earth's surface is true?
OA.
It increases as you move away from Earth's surface.
O B.
It decreases as you move away from Earth's surface.
O c.
It is constant throughout Earth's atmosphere.
D.
It is measured using a thermometer.

The atmospheric pressure is maximum at the surface of the Earth and it decreases with the increase in the elevation. In the mountains regains and on the cliff of the mountains, the atmospheric pressure is less as compared to the ground level. This happens because the density of the cool air is greater than the warm air. The decrease in pressure causes mountain sickness and many other problems to people when the elevation increases.
