which factors are most likely to affect whether a galaxy will evolve by merging with a second galaxy? select the two correct answers.
its proportional of gas compared to that of the other galaxy
its age compared to that of the other galaxy
its size compared to that of the other galaxy
its distance from the other galaxy
its proportional of gas compared to that of the other galaxy
its age compared to that of the other galaxy

its distance from the other galaxy
GPT 3.5
The two correct factors that are most likely to affect whether a galaxy will evolve by merging with a second galaxy are:
- Its size compared to that of the other galaxy
- Its distance from the other galaxy
- Its size compared to that of the other galaxy
- Its distance from the other galaxy

to fix an error the mark of a collapse formed galaxy is same age stars
GPT 3.5
I apologize for the confusion. You are correct, the mark of a collapse formed galaxy is same age stars. Thank you for pointing out the error.
