No more than one, we think. Quasars are so distant that it is difficult to distinguish details about their parent galaxies.

Are quasars the most unusual type of active galaxy?

Quasars are the unusual type of active galaxy in the universe.


What is the galaxy called that sends radio waves?

Quasars


Do all quasars have host galaxies in them?

Quasars do not have galaxies in them, quasars are at the hearts of galaxies. All quasars are located in galaxies, as a quasar involves massive amounts of material falling into a supermassiv black hole. Neither of these can be found outside of a galaxy.

What do the largest and brightest galaxies contain?

quasars.


Are all quasars galaxies?

A quasar is not a galaxy. A quasar is an intense energy source associated with a supermassive black hole that is actively feeding. All quasars are located at the centers of galaxies.

Describe two key aspects of quasars?

Bright, distant, powerful, energetic, at the center of the galaxy.


How many quasars are there?

A Quasar is a powerfully energetic and distant galaxy with an active galactic nucleus surrounding a super massive black hole. Quasars show where massive black holes are growing rapidly (via accretion). These black holes grow in step with the mass of stars in their host galaxy.Therefore there are going to billions or trillions of stars - many more than our own galaxy (~400 billion).


Quasars are high-energy galaxies.?

More precisely, quasars are high-energy galaxy CORES, compact enough to appear starlike, yet emitting more radiation than a million "ordinary" galaxies.


What are the most powerful energy sources in the universe?

I guess that would be quasars. A quasar is a small region in a young galaxy, that can emit perhaps 100 times the energy of an entire (present-day) galaxy. Quasars were a common feature in the early Universe. It is currently believed they were fueled by gigantic black holes.


Quasars are thought to be the center of?

There have been a number of odd and bizarre theories for quasi-stellar radio sources, or "quasars". The current hypothesis is that they surround black holes in the centers of active galaxies. In fact, we suspect that our own Milky Way galaxy has a supermassive black hole in the center, and that it may once have been an "active galaxy". If so, that explains why there are no ancient aliens in the galaxy; the radiation would have killed them all billions of years ago!
