No more than one, we think. Quasars are so distant that it is difficult to distinguish details about their parent galaxies.
Quasars are the unusual type of active galaxy in the universe.
A quasar is not a galaxy. A quasar is an intense energy source associated with a supermassive black hole that is actively feeding. All quasars are located at the centers of galaxies.
Quasars are thought to be the centers of distant galaxies where supermassive black holes are actively accreting matter. The intense energy emitted by this process makes quasars some of the brightest objects in the universe. Studying quasars can provide valuable insights into galaxy formation and evolution.
Quasars are not gone; they are still observed in the universe. Quasars are powered by accretion of material onto supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies, which can make them appear as some of the brightest and most powerful objects in the universe. However, the number of observed quasars may be influenced by factors such as the current stage of galaxy evolution or observational limitations.
No, quasars are not the closest objects to Earth. Quasars are extremely bright and distant celestial objects located billions of light-years away, typically at the centers of galaxies. The closest stars to Earth are in our own Milky Way galaxy.

Quasars
Quasars do not have galaxies in them, quasars are at the hearts of galaxies. All quasars are located in galaxies, as a quasar involves massive amounts of material falling into a supermassiv black hole. Neither of these can be found outside of a galaxy.

Bright, distant, powerful, energetic, at the center of the galaxy.
A Quasar is a powerfully energetic and distant galaxy with an active galactic nucleus surrounding a super massive black hole. Quasars show where massive black holes are growing rapidly (via accretion). These black holes grow in step with the mass of stars in their host galaxy.Therefore there are going to billions or trillions of stars - many more than our own galaxy (~400 billion).
