The answer is; A

Nebulae are clouds of dust and gas in space. When local areas in nebulae start to collapse under their own weight and fusion begins, a star is born. This, therefore, means that a star is denser than nebulae because it requires that atoms fuse for it to form. Fusion creates heavier atoms from light atoms.
