Answer:

B) has no new stars being formed.

Explanation:

An elliptical galaxy is primarily defined as the kind of galaxy that is a gathering of billions of stars bound gravitationally. The stars in such a galaxy orbit in an egg-shaped projection around the focus/center of mass.

As per the question, an elliptical galaxy 'has no new stars being formed.' It rather contains older stars having low mass and gas. <u>The first and second options are incorrect as an elliptical galaxy follows an egg-shaped pattern that denies both the claims 'spiral-shaped and has no recognizable shape.' The last option is wrong as the stars in such a galaxy are old and therefore, contain less gas</u>. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
