It might; gravity might also catapult stars out of a galaxy. But mainly, the stars in a galaxy are believed to have formed within the galaxy in the first place.

Describe how gravity causes stars to form galaxies?
It depends on how much gravity that causes stars to form. It depends on how big the star in the galaxies is.
What holds stars together to form shapes of galaxies?
GRAVITY!
How are superclusters formed?
One way irregular galaxies are formed is when galaxies collide or come close to one another, and their gravitational forces interact. Another source of irregular galaxies may be very young galaxies that have not yet reached a symmetrical state. Also, in some irregular galaxies, like M82, young stars eject energetic bubbles gas, giving the galaxy a blobby look.
What would not exist without gravity?
Planet Earth, the Sun and stars, galaxies, ...
Is there gravity in space and why?
Yes. Gravity is a force of attraction that exists between all objects with mass. It increases with the mass of the object in question and decreases with distance from it. Planets, stars, moons, and galaxies all exert a gravitational pull.
Are stars planets from different galaxies?
Through intense research it has indicated that stars are not only luminous balls of plasma held by gravity, but are also planets from different galaxies. From a distance, they may seem like stars, but are in fact planets. So yes, you are correct, planets are stars from different galaxies.
A group of stars gas and dust held together by gravity is a?
A group of stars, dust and gases held together by gravity IS CALLED GALAXY
Where in the galaxies are meteors found?
usually they are found near stars because of the gravitational pull
Could the universe have formed without gravity?
No - without gravity, galaxies would not have formed, planets would not have formed, stars would not have formed.
Where in the universe does gravity act?
Where can you find gravity in the universe? If your feet are on the ground, then look no further! Gravity is the force that holds you to the earth. Gravity is what holds the moon spinning round the earth, and not floating away. Gravity holds the oceans on the earth, as well as the atmosphere.
What role did gravity play making the sun?
A crucial role. Without gravity, matter would never have gathered together, to form galaxies and stars.
Which stars are actually a galaxy?
No stars are actually a galaxy. All stars are stars and all galaxies are galaxies. Stars are found in galaxies. Some galaxies look like tiny dots in our night sky, so might look like a star, but they are not stars; they are galaxies.
