Because they are so far away, they seem tiny, because of perspective.
No, the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy and the Andromeda Galaxy are not the same. The Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy is a small, irregular galaxy orbiting around the Milky Way, while the Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy located 2.537 million light-years away from the Milky Way.
There are at least 27 known dwarf galaxies orbiting the Andromeda galaxy. These small galaxies are gravitationally bound to Andromeda and are much smaller in size and mass compared to the main galaxy.
Stars appear small to us on Earth because they are extremely far away. The vast distance in space between us and the stars causes them to appear as tiny points of light in the night sky. Additionally, stars emit light that can be easily overwhelmed by the brightness of Earth's atmosphere and city lights, further contributing to their small appearance.
Because they are so far away. Same principle applies to any object as it recedes into the distance.
This small galaxy likely has a relatively low amount of gas and dust, resulting in fewer new stars being formed. The older stars in the galaxy may dominate the population, giving it a more mature appearance. The lack of dust can also lead to clearer observations of the stars within the galaxy.

It's because they are so far away. Even the closest one is 9000 times as far as Neptune. Going another 9,000 times further does not go as far as the centre of the galaxy.
No, the Milky Way Galaxy is very small compared to other galaxies. The largest Galaxy that we know of however is called: IC1011.
Compared to some other planets in the same galaxy, yes; it is actually fractions of the size of other planets in this galaxy
A dwarf galaxy
When you look up into the night sky, there is only one thing yo can see (with good seeing conditions) that is outside of our galaxy, and that is the Andromeda Galaxy. Every other thing you see in the night sky is here in our galaxy. Any basic book on astronomy gives the names of scores of well-known stars. Just a small handful here: Castor, Pollux, Rigel, Sirius, Vega, Polaris, Spica, Regulus.
The Andromeda galaxy (M31), the Large Magellanic Cloud, the Small Magellanic Cloud.
A dwarf galaxy
No, the solar system is not a galaxy. The solar system is a small part of the Milky Way galaxy, which is a collection of billions of stars, planets, and other celestial objects held together by gravity.
No, the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy and the Andromeda Galaxy are not the same. The Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy is a small, irregular galaxy orbiting around the Milky Way, while the Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy located 2.537 million light-years away from the Milky Way.
The solar system is only a small part of a galaxy. The Milky Way, galazy in which our solar system is found, has other solar systems.
