most of the galaxys mass is
within the suns orbit.
very bright.
distributed throughout the halo (dark matter).
uniformly distributed throughout the universe (dark energy).
concentrated at the center as a supermassive black hole.
Brief Explanations
- Dark matter is a form of matter that does not interact with light (so it's not "very bright"), and it is thought to make up a large portion of the mass of galaxies. It is distributed throughout the halo of galaxies.
- The mass within the Sun's orbit is only a small fraction of the galaxy's total mass.
- Dark energy is related to the expansion of the Universe, not the mass distribution within a galaxy.
- While there is a supermassive black hole at the center of galaxies, its mass is negligible compared to the total mass of the galaxy.
