A star whilst being luminous, will spend most of it's life - about 90% - on the main sequence.
However, when a star "dies" they are still refereed to, by many, as stars so one could argue that a star will spend more time "dead" than "alive".
So you could say that a star spends most of it's life as a stellar remnant.
If this is a homework question, the answer is Main Sequence.

Once they run out of fuel, they become white dwarves, neutron stars, or black holes, and THAT is where they really spend most of their time; but since they no longer produce power, that's the reason why I wrote "active life" in the previous paragraph.

Where does a star spend most of its lifetime on an h r diagram?
MAIN-SEQUENCE The average star spends 90% of its life as a hydrogen burning MS star.
The third stage in the life cycle of a star?
what is the third stage of the star cycle
Which life cycle stage are stars stable and why?
The young star stage because at that stage, stars are just burning, no interruptions or disturbances
Which two factors determine the characteristics of a star?
Its mass and its stage of life
What stage is the star rastaban in?
between giant and supergiant stages of life
At what stage in star development does a star spend most of its life?
A Star spends most of its life on the "main sequence" of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (see related link below). While here it is called a "main sequence" star and its source of energy during this phase of its life is the fusion of hydrogen into helium in its core.
Where does a star spend most of its lifetime on an h r diagram?
MAIN-SEQUENCE The average star spends 90% of its life as a hydrogen burning MS star.
Which stage does a stars lose most of its mass?
A star's life can extend for as long as trillions of years. Maturity follows the stable stage of most stars.
The supernova is the stage in the life of a star?
yes, it is the stage where a star dies and turns into a blackhole
The third stage in the life cycle of a star?
what is the third stage of the star cycle
How does a protostar differ from a star?
It doesn't differ from a star, it is a star and it is the second stage in a stars life after the nebula stage.
What is a star's second stage?
The first stage in a star's life is as a nebula. As the gravitational forces spin faster, the star enters it's second stage, that of a prostar.
Is it true that an average star spends 90 percent of its life as a helium burning main sequence star?
no, as a hydrogen burning main sequence star.
What is the earliest stage of the life cycle of a star?
dust
What stage of a stars life is the sun in?
the stage on the star is me not you because newton is black in forest
What will be the final stage in the suns life?
For a star like ours, the black dwarf stage For an immensely massive star, a back hole.
What is life stage of life of the star Alrisha?
Alrisha, also known as Alpha Piscium, is a binary star system located in the constellation Pisces. It is a main sequence star, meaning it is currently in the stage where it is fusing hydrogen into helium in its core, emitting energy in the form of light and heat. This stage of a star's life can last for billions of years.
