No. Red giants are not on the main sequence.
A red main sequence star would be a red dwarf or a branch red giant. To be on the main sequence, you have to have hydrogen nuclear fusion.
main sequence,giant then nebula
None of those is a main sequence star.
After the main sequence, a star becomes a red giant.
Red Giant
No, a white dwarf is not considered a main sequence star. A main sequence star is a star that is still fusing hydrogen in its core. A white dwarf is the remnant of a low to medium mass star in which fusion has stopped.
It is when the star is close to its death stage. {Main Sequence, Giant, Super Giant, and then the white dwarfs}
it doesn't because the star may be already dead before its ready to become a giant.
A main sequence star burns hydrogen to helium. Once a main sequence star exhausts all of the hydrogen, it begins to expand and burn helium causing if to become a red giant.
Because it is on the main sequence. [See related question]
