The relationships between morphological types in both the Hubble-Sandage system and the RDDO system and quantitative measurements of the integrated properties are investigated for a sample of cluster spirals. The parameters measured are integrated color, integrated H I content, position in the color-gas content relation, and 20% velocity width. It is found that there are significant differences between these parameters in the mean as a function of morphological type as well as large scatter within morphological class and conspicuous overlap between various types. It is also shown that the same differences are a strong function of visually estimated disk-to-bulge ratio (D/B). It is suggested that analysis of the physical properties of a spiral galaxy be based on quantitative measurements, rather than on the morphological type of that galaxy.
