| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Homo sapience who settled in the highlands adapted the circulation function to hypobaric hypoxia for maintain the oxygen level in the whole body. However, there is little discussion about physiological variation within highland groups and rerated factors. Therefore, we investigated the modern highland group. In results, both Andean and Tibetan populations have physiological variation and such variation thought to be influenced by genetic and living environment factors.
