9 Short Answer Questions Place your answers to the following questions directly on the test. 40. Base your answer to the following question on the passage below. Asbestos Asbestos is a general name given to the fibrous varieties of six naturally occurring minerals used in commercial products. Most asbestos minerals are no longer mined due to the discovery during the 1970s that long-term exposure to high concentrations of their long, stiff fibers leads to health problems. Workers who produce or handle asbestos products are most at risk, since inhaling high concentrations of airborne fibers allows the asbestos particles to become trapped in the workers' lungs. Chrysotile is a variety of asbestos that is still mined because it has short, soft, flexible fibers that do not pose the same health threat. The chemical formula for chrysotile is Mg3Si2O5(OH)4. State the name of the mineral found on the Earth Science Reference Tables that is most similar in chemical composition. Base your answers to questions 41 and 42 on the cross section below, which shows rock units A through E that have not been overturned. 41. Identify one metamorphic rock that may be found along the boundary between rock units C and E. 42. State the diameter of a particle normally found in rock unit B. Version 1 Page 9 Barnard/George/Ward
