f. A process where elements heavier
than Iron are formed.
g. Nuclear fusion reaction where
Hydrogen is converted to Helium
h. Addition of neutron to form
heavier nuclei
i. Process by which elements are
created within the star
j. This happens in massive star
which convert Hydrogen into
Helium.
 ACTIVITY 4-Story of your Life
Now, you have learned how stars are formed and evolve from one
stage to another and its connection with heavy elements from
Carbon through Iron. There are many processes that stars have to
undergo before they evolve from one stage to another.

For your next task, you will write a story which relates the events of
your life from past, present and future to the life cycle of a star. Use
also those elements which could symbolize something or anything in
your story. (Use another sheet of paper for this task).
