A small galaxy is most likely to merge with:

1. **A nearby galaxy** - Smaller galaxies often interact with nearby galaxies due to gravitational effects.
2. **A much larger galaxy** - Smaller galaxies are often drawn into larger galaxies due to their stronger gravitational pull.

So the two correct answers are "a much larger galaxy" and "a nearby galaxy."
