Hypoxia is ?
A pilot may suffer from hypoxia ?
The sleep pattern closely associated with After decompression at high altitude not using additional oxygen in time. 
The risk of spatial disorientation increases when There contradictory information between instruments the vestibular organs. spatial disorientation will be most likely to occur during flight if brain receives conflicting information the pilot does not believe instruments the procedure recommended to prevent or overcome spatial disorientation to rely entirely on indications of flight instruments. 
Hypoxia can affect night vision At approximately 5 ft. hypoxia can affect night vision at 5000 feet the effect of altitudinal hypoxia on night vision primarily one of an elevation of rod cone threshold although decreased cone function clearly demonstrated the loss of color vision at hypoxic altitudes decrement in central visual acuity usually insignificant however scotopic night vision at altitude can be significantly reduced scotopic vision has been reported to decrease 5% at 3500 ft 20% at 10000 ft 35% at 13000 ft if supplemental oxygen not provided thus use of oxygen even at low pressure altitudes can be very important at night.

Question Basics of Flight Physiology 113 Answer 38
The percentage of oxygen in cabin air Is same as at sea level. the percentage of oxygen in cabin air remains unchanged (21%) at all flight altitudes but as altitude increases partial pressure of oxygen decreases. Question Basics of Flight Physiology 113 Answer 39
Which counter measure can a pilot can use against a barotrauma of middle ear Stop descending climb again then descend with reduced sink rate. the percentage of oxygen in cabin air remains unchanged (21%) at all flight altitudes but as altitude increases partial pressure of oxygen decreases. Question Basics of Flight Physiology 113 Answer 40
The approximate time required complete adaptation of eye when moving from darkness to light Stop descending climb again then descend with reduced sink rate. the percentage of oxygen in cabin air remains unchanged (21%) at all flight altitudes but as altitude increases partial pressure of oxygen decreases.
