Is this not a clear example of a clumpy, centered clump?

To me this is a symmetrical, clumpy spiral, with brightest clump in the center of the galaxy (dominant bulge?). Before, I would have classified this as a tight spiral, dominant bulge, with star forming areas. Your opinions are welcome. Thanks!

I wouldn't call this one clumpy.
The question is: Does the galaxy have a mostly clumpy appearance?
And here I would say no. There are some (starforming)clumps, but the galaxy is not made up of clumps.Hope this makes sense ! 😄
