Question

One star has a mass slightly more than the mass of the sun. Which of these graphs would best model and predict the lifetime of the star on the main sequence?
A) A graph comparing Stellar Mass (x-axis) and Main Sequence Lifetime (y-axis). The line graph shows a steep decrease in stellar mass from left to right.


B) A graph comparing Stellar Mass (axis) and Main Sequence Lifetime (y-axis). The line graph shows a steep increase in stellar mass from left to right.


C) A graph comparing Stellar Mass (axis) and Main Sequence Lifetime (y-axis). The curve shows a steep increase, then a decrease in stellar mass from left to right, peaking at the half-way mark.


D) A graph comparing Stellar Mass (axis) and Main Sequence Lifetime (y-axis). The curve shows a steep decrease, then a increase in stellar mass from left to right, showing the lowest point at the half-way mark.
