Protons and neutrons formed the elements

The universe began through the explosion of a primordial atom which happened

The exponential expansion of a singularity

The atom is the smallest unit of matter that is composed of three sub-atomic particles

Three (3) minutes after the Big Bang

Numbering system adopted by the

limiter their working hours, hindering career advancement, and leading to higher rates of stress and burnout

Giant cloud of gas and dust known as

Formed from nebula due to the gravity that pulled Hydrogen gas together until it spins faster and faster and becomes ignited

Stages in the lifecycle of star

The Helium fused into Carbon. The star is now

The remnant is known as

After 200 million years, Hydrogen and Helium started undergoing a process called

The word "stellar" means

The formation of elements in the center of the star is called

Elements formed in the early universe through the process called the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis

The main reason stars undergo different life stages is because of

Nuclear fusion starts to occur at the core of the star

Hydrogen is converted into Helium

average star gets their energy and convert Hydrogen into Helium

The Proton-Proton Chain Reaction starts with proton and neutron fused together to form

When one proton collides with deuterium,

Two Helium-3 collided will form

The Proton-Proton Chain Reaction dominates in stars the size of the Sun or

Process used in stars 8 times bigger than the sun to convert Hydrogen into Helium

In the CNO Cycle, Carbon 12 combines with Hydrogen to produce

Nitrogen 13 is unstable, therefore it disintegrates into

A more massive main sequence star evolves, cools and expands faster than low mass star and will turn into

The largest known star

Carbon fusion still occurs and Oxygen formed in the

Explosion of star or

Elements are dispersed into the space because of

The smallest star formed from supernova explosion is a

A region in space where gravity is too strong that no matter can escape from it

The hypothetical remain of the white dwarf that cooled down and no longer emits light and heat

Red Giant stars uses helium to power itself through the

This process happens in red giant star once they leave the stage of main sequence star

This is how three Helium 4 are converted into

Alpha particle fusion happens at its core and creates more heavy elements until

Alpha particle fusion is known as the

The process of forming heavier elements than iron over long periods of time

The S-process involves the capture of neutrons before the seed nucleus undergoes

R-process has a faster rate of capturing neutrons before seed nucleus undergoes

The R-process is the
