A star's life can extend for as long as trillions of years. Maturity follows the stable stage of most stars.
Stars that produce most of their energy by the CNO cycle are predominantly those with a mass about 1.3 times the mass of our Sun or greater.Our Sun, and stars comparable in mass or less, predominantly use the proton-proton cycle.
Neutron stars are so heavy because they are the compact core of a star that is 8 time the mass of our Sun. The most massive neutron stars possible are 3 times the mass of our Sun.
Because stars are the one thing that you can see over great distances.
There's no single answer, since luminosity depends not only of mass but stage and temperature. However, most 0.1 Solar mass stars are going to be red dwarfs, so consider Wolf 359, a nearby star, as an example. It's about 0.09 Solar mass and its luminosity varies from about 0.0009 to 0.0011.
The most massive stars; they will use up their fuel much faster than less-massive stars. or even low mass star which is less then half the mass of our sun may able to last more then a trillion years that is longer then the universe age
The most important factor is the stars mass.

Most stars are red dwarfs which range from half the mass of the Sun, down to about 0.075 solar masses.
There are several ways to do this; the most accurate, as far as I know, is in the case of double stars. In that case, from the orbit of one of the stars, the mass of the other one can be determined quite accurately.
This is not necessarily true. most of the time stars with a larger diameter have more mass but some stars with a smaller diameter are more dense and have a greater mass. Find a main sequence star chart and you can compare the data.
Neutron stars are so heavy because they are the compact core of a star that is 8 time the mass of our Sun. The most massive neutron stars possible are 3 times the mass of our Sun.
They lose their milk teeth during childhood.
Mainly its mass. The most massive stars develop the most quickly.

Most medium mass stars such as our Sun DO become red giants. Smaller stars do not have enough mass to initiate helium fusion when the hydrogen supply begins to run low, and do not become red giants.
