What is a galaxy that doesn't have a regular shape called?

A galaxy that lacks a regular shape is called an irregular galaxy. Irregular galaxies do not have distinct spiral arms or a central bulge like spiral or elliptical galaxies. They often have a chaotic appearance with no clear structure.


What Describes a galaxy that has no discernable shape or structure?

A galaxy that has no discernable shape or structure is typically referred to as irregular. Irregular galaxies do not have a distinct spiral or elliptical shape, and can exhibit a chaotic, disorganized appearance. These galaxies often contain young stars and a mix of gas and dust.


Galaxy types from largest to smallest type?

It doesn't really work that way. The types aren't exactly related to size, but rather to shapes. Dwarf galaxies of course are the smallest; but other than that, a spiral galaxy can come in different sizes; so can an irregular galaxy or an elliptical galaxy.


Which galaxy is bigger a elliptical or irregular?

Elliptical galaxies are typically larger than irregular galaxies. Elliptical galaxies are shaped like ellipsoids and often contain more stars and stellar mass compared to irregular galaxies, which have a more irregular and chaotic shape and structure.


There are more spiral galaxies than elliptical?

the elliptical galaxy has a round or oval shape the spiral galaxy has a hurricane shape The origin of these different shapes would lie in the particular momentum of the constituent stars at the time they first coalesced into a galaxy under their mutual gravitational attraction.

I think elliptical galaxies are the galaxies you are referring to. Scientist normally describe them as a flatted disk shape. These galaxies contain mainly older stars.
