What causes pressure in the ears?

Ear - blocked at high altitudes. The air pressure outside of your body changes as altitude changes. This creates a difference in pressure on the two sides of the eardrum. You may feel pressure and blockage in the ears as a result

So the answer is D) the high air pressure in the mountains.
