GinnyAnswer

Final answer:

Metabolic alkalosis precedes acclimatization at high altitudes.

Metabolic alkalosis occurs before acclimatization when one moves to a high altitude. At high altitudes, due to the low partial pressure of oxygen, individuals experience respiratory alkalosis initially before their bodies acclimatize to the altitude.
