Ответ:
b. more rapidly in the vertical direction
Explanation:
Atmospheric Pressure decreases with increasing altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere may be interpreted as the total weight of the air above a unit area at any elevation.
Pressure decreases with increasing altitude because at higher altitudes both the height of overlying air column and its density decreases. Hence the answer.
