What are 2 characteristics of spiral galaxies?

They have a bulge at the center and spiral arms.

What is the difference in a globular cluster and an open cluster?

A globular cluster is a tight groups of up to 1 million stars that looks like a ball.

An open cluster is a group of closely grouped stars that are usually located along the spiral disk of a galaxy.

What is the definition of big bang theory?

The theory that states the universe began with a tremendous explosion 13.7 billion years ago

Page 17: STARS & GALAXIES JEOPARDY. 100 200 300 200 100 500 400 300 200 300 500 200 400 300 500 400 500 400 300.

How are stars different from planets?

Stars give off heat and lightPlanets reflect heat and light

What is the difference in a red giant and a red supergiant?

A red giant is a star that expands and cools once it uses all of its hydrogen.

As the center of a star shrinks, a red giant can become a red supergiant.

Explain the relationship between cosmic background radiation and the big bang theory.

Cosmic background radiation is radiation that is left over from the big bang. After the big bang, cosmic background radiation was distributed everywhere and filled all of space.
