Multiple Choice
In the unified model of active galaxies,the main difference among quasars,BL Lacertae objects,and radio galaxies appears to be that:
A) we see the accretion disk around the central black hole from a different angle in each case-face-on for BL Lacertae, edge-on for radio galaxies, and in between for quasars.
B) the rate at which matter is falling into the central black hole is different in each case-largest in quasars, less in BL Lacertae objects, and least in radio galaxies.
C) the mass of the central black hole is different in each case-largest in quasars, less in BL Lacertae, and least in radio galaxies.
D) the galaxy type with which they are associated is different in each case-spiral for BL Lacertae, elliptical for quasars, and irregular for radio galaxies.
