Which of these galaxies would you most likely find at the center of a large cluster of galaxies?

What is the nearest rich cluster of galaxies?
The nearest cluster of galaxies is the "Virgo Cluster" discovered by Charles Messier in 1784. The Virgo cluster lies at/near the center of the Supercluster we belong to - also called the "Virgo Supercluster". Our "Local Group" (comprising of The Milky way, Andromeda, and another 25-30 smaller galaxies) is part of the Virgo Cluster. The center of the Virgo cluster is at a distance of about 18 Mpc (Mega parsecs) approx 60 Million lightyears from us [which translates to a 'redshift' of only z=0.004]. Ain't the universe huge? Note: There are quite a few 'groups of galaxies' between us and the center of Virgo Cluster.

What are galaxies found in clusters called?

What are similarities between elliptical and spiral galaxies?
While spiral galaxies are bright, elliptical galaxies are dim. Spiral galaxies are hotbeds of star formation, but elliptical galaxies aren't nearly as prolific because they contain less gas and dust, which means fewer new (and brighter) stars are born
