Galaxy morphological classification is a system used by astronomers to divide galaxies into groups based on their visual appearance.
Hubble sequence is a morphological classification scheme for galaxies invented by Edwin Hubble in 1936.
he divided the galaxies into 1) elliptical galaxies
2)Spiral galaxies
3)Lenticular galaxies

Can galaxies divided into types base on size?
are spiral galaxies are generally older than elliptical
What are the categories of galaxies?
There are three main types of galaxies: Elliptical, Spiral, and Irregular. Two of these three types are further divided and classified into a system that is now known the tuning fork diagram. When Hubble first created this diagram, he believed that this was an evolutionary sequence as well as a classification.
What are three types of galaxys?
The three different types of galaxies are the Spiral galaxy, the Elliptical galaxy, and the Irregular galaxy. Spiral galaxies are obviously in the shape of a spiral, elliptical galaxies are shaped as an ellipse, or a flat circle, and irregular galaxies can be any shape.
Which galaxy is the least common elliptical irregular or spiral galaxy?
I think the least common is elliptical or irregular..
How do you draw and label the three types of galaxies?
1.Draw and label the different types of angle?
What are the 3 common galaxies?
galaxie 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5
What scientist discovered the three main types of galaxies?
spiral galaxies elliptical galaxies and irregular galaxies
Three quarters of all known galaxies are what galaxies?
That is a difficult question to fully answer as types of galaxies are not fully defined. A ball park figure would be dwarf galaxies, or spiral galaxies depending on the area in question. See related question for a full breakdown.
What are the three major types of grain?
The three major types of grain are rice, corn, and officially wheat.
The types of Galaxies?
Spiral,elliptical,and irregular galaxies
What are the types or categories for galaxies?
Spiral galaxies, barred spiral galaxies, elliptical galaxies, and irregular galaxies
Galaxies are classified by their shape what are they called?
There are three types of galaxies, all of which are the same, with the exception of their shapes. There are the Elliptical galaxies (football-shaped) the Spiral galaxies (like the Milky way; vortex-shaped) and Irregular galaxies (all shapes other than spiral and football shaped).
