Elliptical Galaxy is a galaxy that looks like a round or flattened ball and contains little gas and dust between the stars.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Elliptical galaxies are galaxies in the universe which look like flattened balls.
- They contain billions of stars but between these stars, there is only very little gas and dust. So new stars are no longer forming in these galaxies.
- As new stars are not forming, most of the elliptical galaxies in space contain very old stars.
- Elliptical galaxies are named by using the alphabet E and numbers between 0 to 7. Examples are E0 and E7.
