Answer:

The way a star dies depends on how much matter it contains—its mass. As the hydrogen runs out, a star with a similar mass to our sun will expand and become a red giant. When a high-mass star has no hydrogen left to burn, it expands and becomes a red supergiant.

Answer:

stars spend most of their lives on the main sequence fusing hydrogen gas to helium gas. stars eventually swell up to form a red giant star. stars like the Sun end their lives as planetary nebulae and white dwarfs.
