Which statement best describes why the Milky Way is shaped a certain way? The gravitational forces from the center of the Milky Way cause stars and solar systems to orbit around the center of the galaxy.

The gravity from the sun causes all of the other stars and solar systems to orbit it.

The Big Bang caused the Milky Way to form into the supernova we see today.

The inertia of objects in space makes them travel far distances.

It would be the first one The gravitational forces from the center of the Milky Way cause stars and solar systems to orbit around the center of the galaxy.

Explanation:

The magnetic field alignment with the star formation implies that the gravitational forces that created the galaxy's spiral shape is also compressing the magnetic field. The alignment supports the leading theory of how the arms are forced into their spiral shape known as "density wave theory."
