How might a nearby neighbor change the shape of this galaxy?
A. It might obliterate all life in that galaxy because of collisions between different planetary systems in the merger of the two galaxies. B. A merger with the neighbor might tighten the spiral arms and lead to a shrinking of the bulge component. C. It might make the disk of the galaxy thinner and the halo rounder. D. Small whirlpools might form in the disk of the spiral and the gas and stars would fall into them, leading to the disappearance of the disk. E. The merger of two spiral galaxies may give rise to an elliptical galaxy.
