Nebulas are important because they form stars. One well known nubeula is the Eagel Nubula which is depicted in one of NASA's most famous images.
emission nebulae and reflection nebulae.
In astronomy, diffuse nebulae is the general term for illuminated nebulae. The three types of diffuse nebulae are reflection nebulae, emission nebulae and supernova remnants. They are diffuse as opposed to the non-diffuse dark nebulae, i.e. the particles have spread out.
The types of nebulae that exist in the universe include bright, dark and emission nebulae. Different nebulae are often named for their shape. More information can be found on "Sea and Sky".
A nebula is a region of interstellar gas and dust. Emission nebulae are clouds of ionized gas that allow red, blue, and violet light through. Generally, these nebulae appear reddish. Reflection nebulae are clouds of dust that simply reflect light from nearby stars. The dust particles of reflection nebulae usually only scatter blue light, so the appearance is blue. Other types of nebulae don't reflect light. Dark nebulae such as the Horsehead Nebula are so dense that they block light from other sources, such as background emission nebulae, reflection nebulae, or other stars.

it depends on how large the nebulae is. The largest of nebulae (in both distance and height) form the largest number of stars while the smallest of nebulae (in both distance and height) form the least number of stars. Therefore there is no fixed number for the number of stars that can be formed from a single nebulae (a variable amount of stars can be formed from one nebulae)

*the correct term is nebulae. a nebulae is a could of many gases and dust, where stars are created. TYPES: Diffuse Nebulae- the most common type. it is interstellar, which means among the stars, and not part of any galaxy. Planetary Nebulae- completely unrelated to planets. planetary nebulae is when gas and plasma are formed after certain types of stars die. it sometimes looks like gas planets, like neptune and uranus, hence the name. Reflection Nebulae- clouds of dust that reflect the light of nearby stars, though they are not nebulae, because they do not create stars. Protoplanetary Nebulae- a point in the lifetime of an astronomical object (star). protoplanetary nebulae, or preplanetary nebulae, emit light, much like reflection nebulae Emission Nebulae- a could of ionized gas which emits colorful lights
