The two correct answers that most likely affect whether a galaxy will evolve by merging with a second galaxy are:
1. **its size compared to that of the other galaxy**
2. **its proportion of gas compared to that of the other galaxy**
The size of the galaxies can influence gravitational interactions during a potential merger, while the proportion of gas can affect star formation rates and the dynamics of the merger process.
