Amphiprotic compounds are able to both donate and accept a proton.
Amphiprotic compounds contain a hydrogen atom and lone pair of valence electron.
For example, HSO₃⁻ (hydrogen sulfate ion) is an amphiprotic compound.
Balanced chemical equation for reaction when HSO₃⁻ donate protons to water:
HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ SO₄²⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺(aq).
Ka = [SO₄²⁻] · [H₃O⁺] / [HSO₃⁻]
Balanced chemical equation for reaction when HSO₃⁻ accepts protons from water:
HSO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₂SO₄(aq) + OH⁻(aq).
Kb = [H₂SO₄] · [OH⁻] / [HSO₃⁻]
Water (H₂O), amino acids, hydrogen carbonate ions (HCO₃⁻) are examples of amphiprotic species.
Another example, water is an amphiprotic substance:
H₂O + HCl → H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻
H₂O + NH₃ → NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

Answer:
a. in supernovae and star collisions
Explanation:
The periodical table contains some heavier elements, which are formed as neutron stars pairs hit eachother and erupt cataclysmically.
The star emitts very large quantities of energy and neutrons during supernova, which allow for the production of heavier elements than iron, such as uranium and gold. All these elements are ejected into space during the supernova explosion.
