What characteristic differentiates high mass stars from low mass stars?
ValentinkaMS [17]
<span>High mass stars are the largest, hottest and brightest while the low mass stars are the smallest, coolest and dimmest. High mass stars use their hydrogen fuel rapidly and have short lives while the low mass stars use hydrogen fuel slowly and have long lives. High mass stars pass through the Red Supergiant stage before dying in supernovae explosions while the low mass stars simply die by burning up their fuel to leave behind the white dwarfs which themselves cool and contract further to black dwarfs.

Why do you think it is Important to communicate your results even if your experiment did not go as planned?
Anna71 [15]
It is important because others do not make the same mistakes. Also, you can compare results. For example, if you do an experiment on high high bouncy balls bounce and you get 16 inches from 5 feet up, others need to know so they can experiment and maybe try things differently, and then compare results. So then you can see if you got roughly the same answer. Please give brainliest answer if this helped.
