At the center of a large cluster, you'll usually find large and massive galaxies.


What is one way that an elliptical galaxy differs from the other types of galaxies?

Elliptical galaxies are large blob shaped galaxies that most galaxies will eventually look like. Elliptical galaxies are what happens when two or more large galaxies collide and coalesce.

What is at the center of Seyfert galaxies?

Nothing special - Just like most large galaxies, they are thought to have a super massive black hole at the centre of the galaxy.


How does the galaxy get bigger?

Galaxies get bigger by a process of merging. The gravitational attraction of the galaxy and the dark matter round it pull in satellite galaxies and these merge with the main galaxy. Eventually large galaxies merge to form large elliptical galaxies. look at the link below.


Are most galaxies in the inner region of a large cluster are spiral true or false?

False. Most galaxies in the inner regions of large clusters tend to be elliptical rather than spiral. This is primarily due to the interactions and mergers that occur in dense environments, which can strip away the gas and dust needed to form new stars, leading to the prevalence of older, redder elliptical galaxies in those areas. Spiral galaxies are more commonly found in less dense environments.


Do dozens of dwarf galaxies merge and form into a giant elliptical galaxy?

Not just dwarf galaxies. Giant elliptical galaxies lie likely the result of many galaxies, small and large, merging.


How do you get a black hole?

Virtually all the ones we know anything about probably formed as the result of the death of a very large star, or at the centers of galaxies. Most if not all galaxies have super massive black holes at their centers.
