Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gravity is the governing force in every stage of a star's life, from its birth through its evolution and death. It is gravity that causes the gas and dust in a molecular cloud to clump together and form a protostar. Gravity also fuels the nuclear reactions that power a main sequence star and determines the ultimate fate of the star (e.g. white dwarf, neutron star, black hole).
