Question 1 Based on galactic rotation curves and motions in clusters of galaxies, dark matter makes up about 90 percent of the matter in the universe. is best detected by the largest optical telescopes. makes up about 10 percent of the matter in clusters of galaxies. exists but has no observable effects on galaxies. is the result of gas and dust. Answer: a © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Question 2 Collisions between galaxies are much rarer than collisions between stars. can transform elliptical galaxies into spirals. trigger Type II supernova explosions in the halo. cause gas and dust clouds to collide, leading to rapid star formation. Answer: d © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Question 2 Collisions between galaxies are much rarer than collisions between stars. can transform elliptical galaxies into spirals. trigger Type II supernova explosions in the halo. cause gas and dust clouds to collide, leading to rapid star formation. Explanation: Galaxies are relatively close compared with their size. In clusters of galaxies, collisions clearly occur. © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Question 3 When spiral galaxies collide, the greatest impact occurs on their globular cluster stars. giant molecular clouds. central bulge stars. open clusters. disk stars. Answer: b © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Question 4 Due to the density and collisions among galaxies, _____ are rare in the centers of clusters. giant ellipticals irregulars spirals active galaxies radio galaxies Answer: c © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Question 4 Due to the density and collisions among galaxies, _____ are rare in the centers of clusters. giant ellipticals irregulars spirals active galaxies radio galaxies Explanation: The gas, dust, and disks of spiral galaxies are tidally disrupted, and even destroyed, in the centers of dense clusters, which are often dominated by giant elliptical galaxies. © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Question 5 The rapid variation of brightness of quasars indicates the source of energy is very small. energy is coming from matter and antimatter. the energy source is rotating rapidly. a chain reaction of supernovas occurs. there are many separate sources of energy in the core.

Question 5 The rapid variation of brightness of quasars indicates the source of energy is very small. energy is coming from matter and antimatter. the energy source is rotating rapidly. a chain reaction of supernovas occurs. there are many separate sources of energy in the core. Explanation: The size of an object cannot be larger than the distance light can travel in the time it takes to change its brightness. © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Question 6 A galaxy seen 1 billion light-years away means we see it as it was when the universe was 1 billion years old. will be 1 billion years from now. was 1 billion years ago. is today, but redshifted 10 percent of the speed of light. was just after the Big Bang.

Explanation: Looking farther away in space means looking back further in time, to when the object (and universe) was younger. © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Question 7 The large-scale distribution of galaxies in the universe reveals a smooth, continuous, and homogeneous arrangement of clusters. large voids, with most of the galaxies lying in filaments and sheets. a large supercluster at the center of the universe. a central void with walls of galaxies at the edge of the universe.

Question 9 The blue arcs in this image are emission nebulae. nearby blue dwarf galaxies. blue supergiant stars. a very distant galaxy imaged by a massive galaxy cluster between us and the distant galaxy. Answer: d © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Question 9 The blue arcs in this image are emission nebulae. nearby blue dwarf galaxies. blue supergiant stars. a very distant galaxy imaged by a massive galaxy cluster between us and the distant galaxy. Explanation: The nearby galaxy—yellow blobs in the center of this image—is 1.5 billion pc from us. The blue arcs are all images of a single, much more distant galaxy. © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.
