From dwarfs to giants.
Elliptical galaxies have the greatest range in diameter and mass among different types of galaxies. They can vary in size from smaller than 10,000 light-years to over 1,000,000 light-years in diameter, and in mass from tens of millions to trillions of times the mass of the sun.
Yes, they are usually of a similar size range to other types of galaxies, from a few thousand lightyears across to a million or more. Their formation is often as a result of two or more galaxies colliding, or coming close to each other.
Yes, galaxies can be any size and shape.
Galaxy sizes range from smallest to largest in the following order: dwarf galaxies, spiral galaxies (such as the Milky Way), elliptical galaxies, and finally, giant elliptical galaxies. It is important to note that this is a general categorization and there is variation in sizes within each galaxy type.
The space in between galaxies is far larger than the galaxies themselves.

Large and Dwarf.
Galaxies are classified by their shape and size. The main kinds are ellipticals, spirals, irregular and dwarfs.
They are measured in light years. Galaxies are often 100,000 light years across or more.
Nothing whatsoever. The two are not associated.
From our knowledge about galaxies, we can infer that the universe is vast in size. Galaxies are massive collections of stars, dust, and dark matter, with some containing billions of stars. The sheer number and variety of galaxies observed suggest that the universe is incredibly expansive.
