They are mostly found in the center of galaxy clusters. Elliptical galaxies range in size from tens of millions to over one hundred trillion stars.
How it is formed:
When two spirals collide, they lose their familiar shape, morphing into the less-structured elliptical galaxies.
Example :
The Large (left) and Small (right) Magellanic clouds are prime examples of irregular galaxies.]]> 2021-04-15 17:23:39 UTC https://padlet.com/s1800526/hjav7cypfqdsnrhp/wish/1422227029 s1800526 https://padlet.com/s1800526/hjav7cypfqdsnrhp/wish/1422286913 Description - Spiral galaxies appear as flat, blue-white disks of stars, gas and dust with yellowish bulges in their centers. These galaxies are divided into two groups: normal spirals and barred spirals. In barred spirals, the bar of stars runs through the central bulge.
How its formed :
It is formed by the bulge and halo of the Milky Way (and other  galaxies) are composed mostly of old stars. This indicates that the bulges and halos of spiral galaxies probably formed through the collapse of individual gas clouds.
Example : The milky way

How it is formed:
They are formed through gravitational interactions and mergers of other galaxies
