Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Elliptical galaxies tend to be smaller in size than spiral or irregular galaxies. They also have little in the way of dust and gas, which is why they have a low rate of star formation. It is believed that some elliptical galaxies were previously starburst galaxies, which had a high rate of star formation in the past.
