How Does the Winding Dilemma Affect Flocculent Spirals

question 21

Multiple Choice

How does the winding dilemma affect flocculent spirals?

• A) The winding dilemma is the basic cause of the chaotic structure in flocculent spirals.
• B) The winding dilemma affects only galaxies with flat rotation curves and constant stellar speeds, and this does not include flocculent spirals.
• C) Flocculent spirals are dominated by self-propagating star formation in which groups of stars are formed and then fade as the massive luminous stars complete their life cycles. This transient, spotty star-formation pattern is unaffected by the winding dilemma.
• D) Flocculent spirals have a whirlpool structure with several centers of rotation, each affected by the winding dilemma. This results in the overall flocculent pattern.
