Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Sun is a member of Population I, which is a category of stars that have a relatively high metallicity (the proportion of elements heavier than helium in their atmospheres) and are typically found in the spiral arms of galaxies. These stars are relatively young, with ages less than 10 billion years, and include most of the stars we see in the night sky. Cepheid variables and horizontal-branch stars are subcategories of Population II, which consists of older stars with lower metallicity, typically found in the galactic halo or bulge.
