The two correct answers for the type of galaxy a small galaxy is most likely to merge with are:
1. **a much larger galaxy**
2. **a nearby galaxy**
These options reflect the gravitational interactions and dynamics that typically occur in galaxy mergers. A nearby galaxy can be more susceptible to gravitational attraction, and a much larger galaxy can dominate the gravitational influence during the merging process.
