Answer:

B. galaxies

Step-by-step explanation:

Galaxies are clusters of stars, gas and dark matter. They are classified based on the shape they form. There are three main categories: Spiral, elliptical, and irregular. As their named suggests, that is what they look like.

Barred spiral galaxies are a subcategory of spiral galaxies. The nucleus of the galaxy (Center) a bar material is formed and arms branch out from the ends of it.
