Flight Surgeon Module B Practice Test

Which of the following are common signs of motion sickness?

Headache Rash Nausea, pallor, cold sweats Dizziness only

Correct Answer:

Nausea, pallor, cold sweats

Explanation:

Motion sickness happens when the brain receives conflicting signals about motion from the eyes and inner ear, triggering autonomic responses. The most characteristic signs are nausea along with pallor (pale skin) and cold sweats, reflecting sympathetic activation. Nausea is the most prominent symptom, and the combination of pallor and sweating makes this trio the classic presentation. Headache can occur but isn’t as specific, rash isn’t related to motion sickness, and dizziness may occur but isn’t the defining cluster of signs.
