To distinguish between properties of the two major types of supernovae: massive star supernovae and white dwarf supernovae. All

supernovae represent the explosions of stars, but current understanding suggests there are two basic types of supernovae: one that occurs when a massive star reaches the end of its life, and the other that occurs when a white dwarf star explodes because its mass has exceeded the white dwarf limit (also called the Chandrasekhar limit) of 1.4 solar masses.
Match the items below with the correct type of supernova.

1. Star explodes completely, leaving no compact object behind.
2. Can only occur in a galaxy with ongoing star formation.
3. Black hole or neutron star left behind.
4. Can only occur in a binary system.
5. Can occur in a very old star cluster.
6. Spectra always lack strong hydrogen lines.
7. Has a brighter peak luminosity.

Answer: Massive star supernovae

2. Can only occur in a galaxy with ongoing star formation.

3. Black hole or neutron star left behind.

White dwarf supernovae

1. Star explodes completely, leaving no compact object behind.

4. Can only occur in a binary system.

5. Can occur in a very old star cluster.

6. Spectra always lack strong hydrogen lines.

7. Has a brighter peak luminosity.

Explanation:  A supernova is a bright explosion of a star as it dies off. Supernova can occur due to the star losing the heat at its core which eventually makes it collapse. This is the type of supernova formed when massive stars die. They occur in a galaxy with ongoing star formation and a black hole or neutron star left behind.

Supernovae can also be occur when a star orbits another and crashes into another. This is what occurs in a white dwarf . This is part of a binary system,  can occur in a very old star cluster and leaves no compact object behind.

Which of the following provides the best characterization of China's strategy in the 1990s to integrate Tibet (Xizang) into the
kherson [118]

The correct answer is - B) providing resources to modernize Tibet's economy and society in general.

China has been trying to integrate Tibet into the Chinese society, in one way or another, since it incorporated it in its territory. Since Tibet is on the fa western part of the country and pretty isolated of the developed part, the Chinese government made a plan to bring in the modern society in Tibet instead.

The Chinese government invested heavily in Tibet, and improved the infrastructure and the living conditions, make it in the shape of the the developed ares in the east. Also, lot of Han Chinese were sponsored by the government to move to Tibet, so the Tibetans became a minority in Tibet very quickly. It is a process that is still going on, and it seems that manages to properly perform a cultural assimilation of the Tibetans.
