Answer:

Of longitudinal waves

Explanation:

Depending on the direction of the oscillation, there are two types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the oscillations occur perpendicularly to the direction of propagation of the wave. Examples are electromagnetic waves.

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the oscillations occur parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. In such a wave, the oscillations are produced by alternating regions of higher density of particles, called compressions, and regions of lower density of particles, called rarefactions. Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

Astronomers suspect that a galaxy’s type can be affected both by the conditions in the protogalactic cloud from which it forms (
Katen [24]

Answer:

The items here are describing either a condition in a later interacton or a protogalactic cloud.  The results matching with spiral and elliptical galaxy are:

For spiral galaxy are options 6,3,2 and 5.

and for elliptical galaxy are options 4 and 1.

Explanation:

Here it is given that astrnomers suspect that types of galaxy can be affected both by the conditions which occurs due to protogalactic cloud and then from it forms the initial conditions and then by the later interactions with the other galaxies.

so, both types of galaxies are matched with their respective items given:

A. Spiral galaxy:

    2. A galaxy collision results tostripping of gas.

    3. The protogalactic cloud rotates in a very slow motion.

    5. The density of protogalactic cloud is very high.

    6. when the protogalactic cloud shrinks cloud forms very rapidly.

B. Elliptical galaxy:

    1. The protogalactic cloud has high angular momentum.

    4. Most of the protogalactic gases settles down into a disk.
