A student is shown a picture of a large number of stars clumped together without a discernible shape. The student argues that these stars cannot be a galaxy because all galaxies have familiar shapes such as barred, elliptical, and spiral. Is the student correct? A.
Yes. These stars cannot be a galaxy if they do not form a familiar shape.
B.
The stars cannot be a galaxy, but the student incorrectly lists "barred" as a possible shape. All galaxies are either elliptical, spiral, or spheroidal.
C.
Although all galaxies have familiar shapes, no single image can capture an entire galaxy. If the student could see the entire galaxy, it would have a familiar shape.
D.
No. The stars could be part of an irregular galaxy.

D.

Explanation:

Irregular galaxies have no identifiable shape or structure to them. They are often chaotic in appearance, without a bulge or any trace of spiral arms.

quantum mechanics or quantum physics is physics of very small objects (particles) and physical entities.

quantum physics has some parallels to our macro world and some pretty unique ideas which theoretically and mathematically proven to be true even though we will never be able to access them because of our size.

there are many types of particles: subatomic, elementary etc.

subatomic means they are smaller than atom, elementary means they are at the very basis of everything.

subatomic particles are for eg. protons, neutrons but not electrons.

elementary particles are categorised into 3 groups by what they do.

these 3 groups are quarks, leptons and bosons.

light for example is a particle more precisely a photon a part of leptons.

proton (subatomic particle) is made out of 2 up quarks and 1 down quark each of these has a fractional charge like . (i crazy)

most famous scientist who contributed to this physics are:

the topic itself us understand a lot and will probably be vastly used in the future (quantum computers, understanding the big bang,

we also must not forget quantum effects like:

and there is more. but probably too much for this answer to be consistent due to my average understanding of this topic.

hope this you understand quantum mechanics a little more. i'm not an expert in the topic (so don't be like wth if you are an expert) but i'm very interested in it.

anyways quantum physics is a very hard topic (harder than physics (perhaps)) therefore searching for every information there is about it and learning it is unfortunately impossible (you can only specialise into 1 - 3 things or more (perhaps

have fun and i wish you luck!
