The most important factor is the stars mass.
rrrrr
The life cycle of all stars is pretty similar from birth to late in their life - that's when the rest of their life cycle can vary dramatically. Small and medium-sized stars tend to be the longest-lived stars (our Sun is a typical example), and they end their life by expanding, cooling, and then blowing off their outer shell while their nucleus collapses to a "White Dwarf".
Mass and size
Short, violent, and ends as a black hole.
The "star life cycle" refers to stars. Earth is not a star.
Nobody "invented" it, the life cycle of stars happens naturally.
In the nebula!
The smaller a star is, the longer its life cycle.
the answer is a protostar
The more the mass the shorter their life cycle (the more quickly they use their fuel)
The most important factor is the stars mass.
Stars are "born", mature, reach old age, then "die".
Astro means star its study of the life cycle of stars
rrrrr
The main sequence.
The more massive a star is, the less its life time.
