What are the three main classifications that describe galaxies? By what one visible characteristic do scientists categorize galaxies?

Spiral Galaxies, Elliptical Galaxies  & Irregular Galaxies

Explanation:

How did galaxies originate? Astronomers believe that after the big bang, the explosion which began the universe 10 billion to 20 billion years ago, gravity began to compress masses of free-floating gas. Two main theories, bottom-up and top-down, explain what happened next. According to bottom-up theories, clusters began to form and assembled together into the larger units we know as galaxies. Top-down theories suggest that galaxies formed first, and the stars and other objects within them were subsequently produced. They categorized different galaxies to maintain their tests from the other galaxies.
