Answer 4

lol no, you would get less that way, too, because oxygen comes from plants, which are mostly on ground level, meaning that if you go above or below ground level, you get less oxygen!! :D

lol I like your logic, too, though.

Answer 5

too humid underground though

Answer 6

NOT.......

Answer 7

the problem with going undeground is that it gets hotter the lower you get.  And oxygen is limited too, unless you have a good ventilation system.

Answer 8

No. The total concentration of oxygen decreases because the partial pressure of oxygen decreases as you go up in the atmosphere. There is the same percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere, but because pressure generally decreases with altitude, there is in essence less available to you.

Answer 9

You don't notice much change in the oxygen until you are over 10,000 feet, before you could get that far underground you would be in molten rock.
