Will an air purifying respirators save your life within an oxygen-deficient atmosphere?
No, an air purifying respirator will NOT save your life in an oxygen deficient atmosphere.
An air PURIFYING respirator removes bad things from air. It does not MAKE good things (like oxygen). In an oxygen deficient atmosphere, you must have a supply of oxygen. This is usually provided by an SCBA, or an air line respirator.
Underground miners have "self rescue breathers." These are a form of respirator that can make oxygen. They are very expensive, have limited uses, and work for a limited time.

What can potentially create a flammable atmosphere within a confined space?
- Leaking Gases or Liquids - Combustion or Oxidation - Decomposing Organic Matter ...all of the above are correct (they can create a toxic atmosphere within a confined space).
What is horizontal heat transfer within the atmosphere called?
Horizontal heat transfer within the atmosphere is called advection. It refers to the movement of air masses carrying heat horizontally from one location to another.
