Compared to the central regions of spiral galaxies, we expect elliptical galaxies to have ...
A) higher mass-to-light ratios because stars in elliptical galaxies are dimmer than those in spirals.
B) lower mass-to-light ratios because stars in elliptical galaxies are dimmer than those in spirals.
C) higher mass-to-light ratios because stars in elliptical galaxies do not have high orbital velocities.
D) lower mass-to-light ratios because elliptical galaxies have less gas and dust than spirals.
E) the same mass-to-light ratio because they are made of the same material, stars, and dark matter.
