Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Plants need carbon dioxide to grow, and lower air density and atmospheric pressure at high altitude produces lower carbon dioxide levels and a slower transpiration rate. Slow transpiration and limited carbon dioxide slow down the rate of photosynthesis and growth.
