Does a red giant start have fusion occurring in its core?
No. In a red giant, fusion occurs in a shell around the core.
What color is the red giant that is in space?
A red giant star is a dying star that is in the last stages of stellar evolution. Red giant stars are red in color.
What is a star called that has exhausted its supply of hydrogen?
A star that has exhausted the hydrogen in its core will become a red giant or supergiant.
The sun will eventually use up its hydrogen fuel and become what?
When the sun exhausts the hydrogen in its core and become a red giant.
When a main-sequence star has exhausted the fuel in its core it becomes a....?
I am pretty sure it becomes a giant if I'm not mistaken.
What are white dwarfs generally formed from in space?
White dwarfs are the exposed core of a dying star. They are formed when small or medium-sized stars age and became a red giant, then the outer layers of the red giant drift into space, leaving a hot core in the center, that core is a white dwarf.

No. In a red giant, fusion occurs in a shell around the core.
What color is the red giant that is in space?
A red giant star is a dying star that is in the last stages of stellar evolution. Red giant stars are red in color.
How are giant stars and white dwarf related?
A giant star is a dying star that expanded, and the core shrinks are the same time. When the shell of the giant star drift into space as planetary nebula, the core became a white dwarf. The white dwarf is made from the core of the giant star.
How is the red-giant formed?
A red giant forms when a star runs out of hydrogen fuel at its core and starts fusing hydrogen in a shell around the core the core. This causes the star to expand and cool.
What is a star called that has exhausted its supply of hydrogen?
A star that has exhausted the hydrogen in its core will become a red giant or supergiant.
The sun will eventually use up its hydrogen fuel and become what?
When the sun exhausts the hydrogen in its core and become a red giant.

How does a stars temperature change as the star ages from main sequence star to a red giant and from a red giant to a white dwarf?
A regular stars temperature cools as it balloons into a red giant. The color shift is evident by the word red because red is the coolest color of heat. The surface of a dying star is cool because it is so much farther away from the core than when it is on the main sequence. After a star sheds its 'skin' the only thing that is left is the white hot core, which will eventually dim to a brown dwarf which is nothing but the cool charred remains of the white dwarf and will give off little to no light.
Are red giants stars the youngest?
No. Unless a star is a red giant (in which case it is old and dying) a red color does not indicate anything about its age.
How a star becames a white dwarf?
A white dwarf is the core of a dead star. As the star runs out of fuel, it expands into a red giant, as the shell of the red giant became a planetary nebula, and the core shrinks and became a white dwarf.
When a stars core collapses?
Neutronium, hyper-dense atomic nuclear material stripped of all electrons.
