Detailed Solution

  • The atmospheric pressure decreases with height as the air becomes less dense as we go up.
  • As a result, the internal body pressure becomes higher as compared to the air pressure, causing veins to burst and resulting in a nosebleed.

Therefore, we can say that a mountain climber experiences a nosebleed due to a decrease in atmospheric pressure.
