The correct statement about the Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy is:
**They both exert a strong gravitational pull on each other.**
Andromeda and the Milky Way are actually on a collision course and will eventually merge, which indicates that they exert significant gravitational influence on each other. The other statements are incorrect. The Andromeda galaxy is also a spiral galaxy, and while the Milky Way is quite large, Andromeda is actually larger in terms of the number of stars it contains.
