What part of galaxies where red old star found?
arm of galaxy
What is an increase in the wavelength of light as a galaxy moves away from earth?
Red Shift
Does the colour of a galaxy reflect its distance away from the earth?
No, however, we can determine whether a galaxy is moving towards or away from us, by looking at the shift in its spectrographic analysis. There are "red shifts" and "blue shifts" in spectrographic results. "Blue shifts" indicate that a galaxy is moving towards us, because the wavelength of the light emitted by the galaxy is compressed, causing it to shift to the blue end of the colour spectrum. "Red shifts" indicate that a galaxy is moving away from us, because the wavelength of the light emitted by the galaxy is being stretched towards the red end of the colour spectrum.
Who discovered the red shift?
In 1848, Hippolyte Fizeau first noted a red shift in stars. In 1912, Vesto Slipher first noted a large red shift in nebulae. In 1929, Edwin Hubble published his findings that the size of galaxy's red shift was proportional to its distance from our Earth.

What does red shift show?
The red shift shows the velocity with which an object is moving away from the earth. The red shift of an object is correlated to its distance from the earth and so it is also a measure of the distance.
Earth sun red giant galaxy is this the correct order from smallest to biggest?
Yes.
The order of scale from smallest to largest is?
Quark --> Earth, sun, red giant, galaxy, universe
The order of the universal stuff on a scale from smallest to largest is?
earth, sun, red giant, and galaxy... :)
How does red shift lead to the big bang theory?
The red shift is a Doppler effect for visible light that implies an object is moving away from you. The blue shift is a Doppler effect for visible light that implies an object is moving towards you. Stars are distrbuted within galactic clusters. If a star is red-shifted, the distance between us and that galaxy is increasing. If it is blue-shifted, the distance between us and the galaxy is decreasing. All galaxies outside our local galactic cluster produce light that is red-shifted; and the greater the distance between us and these outside galaxies, the greater the red shift. That the size of the red shift depends on the distance is considered isotropic (or the same in all directions), meaning the distance between our local galactic cluster and all other galactic clusters is increasing at the same ratio based on distance from us. These distant galactic clusters, demonstrating red shift, are supportive evidence that these outside galaxies are moving further apart consistent with the Big Bang Theory. While the red shifted starlight is considered supportive evidence of an expanding universe, there are a few examples of blue shifted starlight within our Local galactic cluster. The Andromeda Galaxy is moving towards within the Milky Way galaxy, so when it is observed from Earth, its light is blue shifted. Any even within our own Milky Way galaxy, the Barnard Star is also moving towards Earth and appears to have a slight blue shift.
What is the distance of the habitable zone from a red dwarf star?
About 0.5 AU, or about half the distance from Earth to the sun.
Will earth be destroyed when the Andromeda galaxy collides with the milky way galaxy?
The collision of Andromeda with the Milky Way is not expected for many billions of years, by which time the Earth will have already been destroyed by the expansion of the sun into a red giant.
