A galaxy contains stars, gas and dust. In a spiral galaxy like the Milky Way, the stars, gas, and dust are organized into a "bulge," a "disk" containing "spiral arms," and a "halo." Elliptical galaxies have a bulge-like central region and a halo, but do not have a disk.

How does the use of H II regions to find a galaxy's distance differ from the use of Cepheid variables?

H II regions are regions of ionized gas in a galaxy that emit strong emission lines, allowing astronomers to determine the galaxy's distance using spectroscopy. Cepheid variables are pulsating stars with a period-luminosity relationship that allows astronomers to determine distances to galaxies based on their observed brightness variations. While both methods are used to measure extragalactic distances, they rely on different physical properties of objects within the galaxy.
