Answer:

Option C, The age of the oldest stars

Option E How fast distant galaxies can are moving away from us

Explanation:

As per the Big bang theory, all the celestial objects be it star or planet originated at the initial stage of formation of universe. Thus, If the age of the oldest star is known , then the age of the universe can also be determined.

The age of universe can also be determined by working out the Hubble's constant which is nothing but the current expansion rate of universe.

Once the Hubble's constant is worked out, the age of universe can be calculated by following mathematical relation

Age of Universe= $\frac{2}{3H_{0}}$

where , $H_{0} =$ Hubble's constant

Hence, Both option C and E are correct

Tomtit [17]

The right answer is to measure the amount of released carbon dioxide.

The carbon dioxide exhaled by the lungs can reflect the energy consumed by the body since it comes from the degradation of glucose which is the main energy substrate. And this is a better indicator of energy consumption than measuring heart rate because it can be inflected by several factors.

A is false because glucose is not found in the urine, except in the case of diabetes mellitus.

C is false because the consumption of calories does not mean that we will directly use it.

D is wrong because perspiration is independent of energy consumption, this is a way to cool the body after exercise.
