1.What is true about the galaxies in our Universe?
They are all the same shape
They are all the same size
They are all spread out evenly throughout space
They orbit each other in clusters
2.An Sa galaxy is best described by which of the
following:
A spiral galaxy with loosely wound arms
A spiral galaxy with tightly wound arms
An irregular galaxy
A barred spiral galaxy
3.What is located at the very center of most galaxies?
globular clusters
our solar system
a black hole
a supergiant star
1) They orbit each other in clusters
Reason - they orbit around the common center of mass called barycenter
--------------------------------
2) A spiral galaxy with tightly wound arms
This is the standard description. Here S is for spiral and a is sub class. A galaxy with very tightly wound arms belongs to class a
