Explanation / Answer

1. True. Hematocrit increases with increase in altitude as the number of RBCs increase (effect of reduced partial pressure of oxygen)

2. True. Lactate increases with altitude

3.true. due to reason stated in 1.

4. False. Heart rate has no changes unless there is hypoxia. Then the heart rate will increase.
