10. The Hubble Age. Let's estimate the age of the universe. Pick two galaxies, one 10 Mpc away, and one 100 Mpc away. Calculate how fast each one is moving away from us, assuming a Hubble constant of 70 km/sec/Mpc. Assume they have always been moving at that speed and calculate how long (in years) it has taken them to reach their present distance. Because the expansion is uniform, it shouldn’t matter which galaxies you use. What is your estimate...

2.How is it possible for a trait to “skip generations” (i.e., one of your traits was also in one of your grandparents, but not in either of your parents) when every piece of DNA in you was also in one of your parents? How do meiosis and fertilization play a role in this phenomenon? 7. Why do Punnett squares not work for genes located on mitochondrial or chloroplast DNA?
