inadequate.

What is…..

Stagnant Hypoxia?

This type of hypoxia results when there is interference with the

use of oxygen by body tissues……

What is…..

Histotoxic Hypoxia

This type of hypoxia occurs when decreasing

atmospheric pressure prevents the diffusion of oxygen from the lungs to

the bloodstream.

What is….

What is…..

Environmental Stressor?

This medical term refers to undesired effects resulting

from the combination of two or more drugs or from a

by someone with clinically normal eyesight.

Name this test……..

What is……

The Snellen Test

This visual illusion is the falsely perceived self-

motion in relation to the motion of another object…..

What is…..

Relative Motion?

This visual illusion occurs when aircrew members land

at night, under NVG conditions, and the IR

searchlight is directed too far under the nose of the

aircraft…..

What is…..

Crater Illusion?

This visual illusion is caused by the effects of heat waves,

rain, snow, sleet, or other visual obscurants….

What is…..

Structural Illusion?

This visual illusion is due to a lack of sufficient visual cues

and causes an aircrew member to lose depth

perception…..

What is….

Height-Depth Illusion

Crew members may become so engrossed with a problem

or task within the cockpit that they fail to properly

scan outside the aircraft….

What is….

Fascination (Fixation)

Define:

Spatial Disorientation

What is….
