Place the stages of a high-mass star’s life cycle in the correct order, from a star’s birth to its death.
Understand the Problem
The question is asking for the correct order of the stages in the life cycle of a high-mass star, from its birth to its death. The user needs to arrange the terms provided (nebula, supernova, protostar, neutron star, supergiant) in the right sequence.
Answer
Nebula, protostar, supergiant, supernova, neutron star.
The correct order is nebula, protostar, supergiant, supernova, neutron star.
Answer for screen readers
The correct order is nebula, protostar, supergiant, supernova, neutron star.
More Information
High-mass stars undergo dramatic transformations leading to explosive ends that create spectacular supernovae, often leaving behind neutron stars or black holes.
Tips
A common mistake is confusing the final stages, such as mixing neutron stars with black holes. Ensure the mass of the star dictates the end stage.
