Abstract
This is the second of two papers based on a systematic multi-wavelength (X, B, H, 12m, FIR, 6cm) statistical analysis of the {\it Einstein Observatory Galaxy Catalog} sample of 234 `normal' S0/a-Irr galaxies. This sample is representative of spiral galaxies (Paper I), and its wide wavelength coverage provides a unique opportunity for a systematic exploration of the relations among different emission bands, that can give novel insight on the different emission processes and their relation to galaxian components, as a function of galaxy morphology.
