Which is the correct order for a star's life cycle?

• Main sequence -> red dwarf -> white dwarf

• Protostar -> main sequence -> neutron star -> Red giant

• Main sequence -> red supergiant -> supernova -> neutron star

• Red giant -> supernova -> white dwarf -> black dwarf

What is the reason a Main sequence star is so stable?

• The number of atoms remain the same

• The radiation pressure balances the pressure of weight/gravity

• Magnetic forces within it hold it together

• It has plenty of emotional support from it's friends

• Large rocky ball of ice that orbits the sun

• Cluster of billions of stars

• Lumps of rock or iron that orbit the sun

• Minor planets
