Actually the terms "Globular" and "Open" are not related to the number but the age of the stars. Globlular clusters are many old stars packed in spherical form (they look like hazy mothballs to the naked eye) and "open clusters" are many young stars formed close to each other. The constellation Pleiades is an example of open cluster.

False. Globular clusters typically contain many more stars than open clusters, with some globular clusters containing hundreds of thousands to millions of stars tightly packed together. Open clusters, on the other hand, usually have fewer stars and are more loosely dispersed.
