Question
question 5 1 pts you find a galaxy with a red tint, that has little gas and dust, it is most likely a: irregular spiral elliptical
Brief Explanations
Elliptical galaxies are characterized by a red tint (due to older, cooler stars) and very little gas/dust (since star formation has ceased). Irregular galaxies have ongoing star formation (blue tint) and gas/dust, while spiral galaxies have gas/dust in their disks (blue spiral arms). Thus, the described galaxy matches an elliptical galaxy.
