What are galaxies classified as?

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.


Different kinds of galaxes?

There are three main types of galaxies: spiral galaxies (like the Milky Way), elliptical galaxies (oval or spherical in shape), and irregular galaxies (lacking a distinct shape). These classifications are based on the galaxies' shapes and structures.


How do scientists categorize galaxies?

Scientists categorize galaxies based on their shape and structure into three main types: elliptical, spiral, and irregular galaxies. Elliptical galaxies are smooth and featureless, spiral galaxies have distinct arms winding out from a central bulge, and irregular galaxies lack a defined shape. Additionally, galaxies can be classified by their size, brightness, and the presence of active galactic nuclei. This classification helps astronomers understand the formation and evolution of galaxies in the universe.
