Because stars make up galaxies. Though not all of them help make up solar systems. But if there are no stars, then a galaxy becomes a bunch of empty space.
Yes, there are stars between galaxies. When there are collisions or interactions between galaxies, stars can be ripped out of the galaxies. These stars will then wander into space between galaxies. Such stars have been observed with the Hubble Space Telescope. Taken from http://curious.astro.cornell.edu/question.php?number=384
Galaxies are made up of billions to trillions of stars.
That is related to their past history. Many galaxies have undergone collisions with other galaxies; this takes out most of the interstellar gas, and the galaxies can no longer form new stars. If I remember correctly, such galaxies will change into elliptical galaxies.That is related to their past history.

All of them
Yes. However, the current rate of star creation is less than when the galaxies were younger.Yes. However, the current rate of star creation is less than when the galaxies were younger.Yes.

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.
All stars and galaxies are in the universe.

Smaller galaxies do. Larger galaxies contain billions or even trillions of stars.
Galaxies are the massive collection of stars. Therefore galaxies could not have formed without stars.
Stars and Galaxies are related because a galaxy is a system of billions of stars, gases, and dust.
Stars
Bigger galaxies. And stars.
Galaxies ARE groups of stars. Lots of stars though. Not just like 2 or 3...
the stars are in the night skies
Galaxies are vast collections of stars. So I guess you could say that a big group of stars forms a galaxy. Our galaxy has many big clusters of stars within it, so not all star clusters are galaxies. If you have a cluster of several million or billion (or trillion) stars surrounded by a lot of empty space, that is probably a galaxy.
Because that is what galaxies are "made" up of.
