Well, darlin', elliptical galaxies are basically the couch potatoes of the galaxy world - round and blob-like with no real structure to show off. Spirals, on the other hand, are like the supermodels with their arms stretched out in those fabulous spiral arms, showin' off their curves. So, in a nutshell, ellipticals are the lazy circles and spirals are the glamorous twirls of the cosmic dance floor.
No. Elliptical galaxies are some of the oldest galaxies.They are also called early galaxies. The elliptical galaxies are made of low massed stars, a sparse interstellar medium and very low star forming characteristics.
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.
Galaxies are classified based on their shape and structure. The main types of galaxies are spiral, elliptical, and irregular. Spiral galaxies have distinct arms of stars, elliptical galaxies are more oval-shaped with older stars, and irregular galaxies have a less defined shape.

The concentration of stars is typically more centrally located in elliptical galaxies compared to spiral galaxies. Elliptical galaxies have a more concentrated spheroidal shape with stars distributed densely in the center, while spiral galaxies have a more spread-out disk structure with stars distributed along spiral arms.
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

Spiral,elliptical,and irregular galaxies
There are various ways of categorising galaxies, often based on Edwin Hubble's work on the shapes galaxies. Classifications often give the four main types of galaxies as: Spiral (including barred spiral), Elliptical, Lenticular and Irregular.
An elliptical galaxy is round. A spiral galaxy is shaped like a spiral.
spiral, elliptical, and irregular. The only differences are shape. Elliptical galaxies are shaped like an ellipse, spiral galaxies like a spiral or pinwheel, and irregular don't have a uniform shape
