A seasickness. B heart disease and high blood pressure. C a cold, allergy or another medical problem. D anxiety. - Correct answer C
alternate air source second stage low pressure inflator hose for the BCD instrument console/gauges/computer - Correct answer 1. regulator first stage, 2. regulator second stage, 3. alternate air source second stage, 4. instrument console/gauges/computer, 5. low pressure inflator hose for the BCD
A inflate my BCD. B stop all activity and rest, holding onto something for support if possible. C swim immediately to my buddy and signal for help. D do a controlled emergency swimming ascent (CESA - swimming up to the surface saying the ah-h-h-h sound). - Correct answer B
B Stay at this depth. C Go this way. D Out of air. - Correct answer D
A go up immediately, wait a minute and then go back down. B search for a minute and then go up to reunite with my buddy at the surface. C go to the surface immediately and get out of the water. D look for my buddy's bubbles and follow the bubbles to find my buddy. D In midwater When descending and ascending in reduced visibility, you can feel disoriented, especially in mid-water when you can't see either the bottom or the surface. See Being a Diver III - Visibility. - Correct answer 28) I am most likely to become confused about which way is up or down _____________. A at the surface B near the surface C on the bottom D in midwater C Dive against or into the current. By swimming into a current for the first part of a dive, you can let it carry you back to where you started during the second part. See Being a Diver III - Water Movement. - Correct answer 29) I feel a mild current at the start of my dive. How should I begin this dive? A Dive with the current. B Dive across the current. C Dive against or into the current. D Dive at an angle to the current.
jerky movements, and do not follow instructions. They need immediate help because they may continue to struggle until exhausted. See Being a Diver III - Surface Problem Management - Responsive Diver. - Correct answer 32) A diver at the surface is moving quickly and jerkily, has the mask off the face, the regulator/snorkel is out of the mouth, and the diver does not respond to directions. The diver is A giving the okay signal. B performing a predive safety check. C excited about the dive. D showing signs of distress (trouble). A Switch to my buddy's alternate air source. When out of air, your best option is usually to make an alternate air source ascent using your buddy's alternate air source. See Being a Diver III - Underwater Problem Management. - Correct answer 33) I am close to my buddy and realize I am out of air. The best response is to A switch to my buddy's alternate air source. B make a controlled emergency swimming ascent (swim up to the surface making a continuous sound, like ah-h-h-h). C make a buoyant emergency ascent (dropping my weight system). D switch to my buddy's alternate air source and continue the dive. C Hold the regulator without sealing my mouth around the mouthpiece and "sip" the air I need as I ascend (go up).
You can breathe from a freeflowing regulator by "sipping" air as you need it. Don't seal your mouth around the mouthpiece. Begin your ascent promptly, because the freeflow will exhaust your air supply quickly. See Being a Diver III - Underwater Problem Management. - Correct answer 34) If my regulator begins to free flow (release air continuously) while underwater, I should A make a controlled emergency swimming ascent. B do nothing special. C hold the regulator without sealing my mouth around the mouthpiece and "sip" the air I need as I ascend (go up). D make a buoyant emergency ascent. A Ascend using my buddy's alternate air source / make a controlled emergency swimming ascent You can make a normal ascent when very low on air, but your cylinder isn't completely empty. When out of air, your best option is usually to make an alternate air source ascent using your buddy's alternate air source. Make a controlled emergency swimming ascent when fairly shallow and the surface is closer than a buddy with an alternate air source. Make a buoyant emergency ascent when your buddy is not near and you're deep enough that you don't think you can make it to the surface by just swimming. See Being a Diver III - Underwater Problem Management. - Correct answer 35) Although it shouldn't have happened, on a dive I fail to watch my SPG and run out of air. If my buddy is close by, my best option is to __________. Another option is to _____________, if I'm in shallow water and the surface is closer than my buddy. Note: you may have to scroll down to see the whole question or to submit your answer. A ascend using my buddy's alternate air source / make a controlled emergency swimming ascent
D reduce the risk of breathing contaminated air. A Ascend (go up) to a shallower depth. If you or a buddy experience narcosis, immediately ascend to a shallower depth. Narcosis generally fades quickly when you return to a shallower depth. See Being a Diver V - Gas Narcosis. - Correct answer 38) Divers who act foolishly at depth due to gas narcosis may start acting normally again if they A ascend (go up) to a shallower depth. B breathe slowly and deeply. C signal their buddy for help. D dive within no stop limits. B Dive while tired, cold, sick, thirsty or injured. Secondary factors that can contribute to developing decompression sickness include fatigue, dehydration, cold, poor fitness, high body fat, illness, injuries, age, alcohol consumption before or after a dive, and vigorous exercise before, during or immediately after a dive. See Being a Diver IV - Decompression Sickness. - Correct answer 39) I am likely to increase the risk of decompression sickness (DCS) if I A dive in poor visibility, strong moving water, and rough seas. B dive while tired, cold, sick, thirsty or injured. C do not look after my equipment. D am using a dive computer. C Breathe 100 percent oxygen and contact emergency medical care.
For a suspected case of decompression illness, contact emergency medical care, lie down and breathe emergency oxygen. Almost all cases of decompression illness require treatment in a recompression chamber. Don't delay first aid and getting to treatment. See Using Dive Computers and Tables II - First Aid Treatment for Decompression Illness. - Correct answer 40) If I think I have decompression sickness I should A stop diving until I feel better. B go back in the water. C breathe 100 percent oxygen and contact emergency medical care. D see a doctor when I can. B Reading the manufacturer's instructions.
