Through the rotation of stars and gas around the Galaxy that did not obey the expected behavior

Explanation / Answer

1.A) because almost all known galaxy are known to have supermassive black hole at their centre.

2)Edwin Hubble made the discovery first in 1935.

3)Scientist theorise that most matter in our galaxy is dark matter

4)Sgr A* at the centre of milky way is the closest.

5) D) because the the total kinetic energy is much greater than expected.
