Globular clusters can contain anywhere from hundreds of thousands to millions of stars. The exact number varies depending on the cluster.
I suppose you confused the term "globular star cluster". It is the cluster (the group of stars) that is globular (approximately spherical). The term "globular" doesn't refer to the individual stars.
No, a globular cluster is a group of stars that are part of a galaxy. The Virgo cluster is much bigger. It is a large nearby group of galaxies.
its called a globular cluster
That is called a globular cluster.
Whooooo there. That is a silly question. You or you teacher is forgetting about the total number of stars within a galaxy and cluster. Whilst a globular cluster has mainly older stars compared to an open cluster it will only contain a few billion stars, whereas a galaxy can have upwards of 500 billion stars, many of them old. So the answer is not definitive, but I think the answer you are looking for is global clusters.
Constellation or "asterism". The difference is that "constellations" are officially recognized by the International Astronomical Union, while an "asterism" is any other pattern or grouping of stars.
a globular cluster
A globular cluster is a densely packed spherical collection of stars held together by gravity. They typically contain hundreds of thousands to millions of stars, making them appear as bright, compact, and symmetrical groupings when seen from Earth.
