Draw a schematic (not to scale) of filaments, walls, and voids, labeling each.

Question 2

Draw a schematic (not to scale) of the Milky Way Galaxy face on so that you see the spiral arms. Label the spiral arms. Now draw a schematic (not to scale) of the Milky Way Galaxy edge-on, and locate and label the disk.

Answer to Question 1

The drawing should look like soap bubbles.

Answer to Question 2

Arms are shown in the face-on figure, usually two grand spiral arms (even though the MWG has spurs). Edge-on, the MWG appears like a quarter and we see the outer rim of the arms, which we refer to as the disk.
