Yes, they produce lots of stars. A nebula is often described as being a nursery of stars.
No. A nebula is a billion, if not more, times larger than our Sun
No. A neutron star is quite small, generally only a few miles across. A nebula is light years across.
Yes, a nebula can be much larger in size than a star. Nebulae are vast clouds of gas and dust in space, while stars are relatively small and compact objects that form within these nebulae. Some nebulae can span hundreds of light-years across, whereas stars are typically only a few times the size of Earth.
The color of emission nebulae is a result of the predominate gas or gasses in that nebulae. Different gasses glow in different colors. Blue, as the color of the star, indicates how hot the star is.
The heaviest element that can be produced prior to supernova is Iron (Fe).

"Nebula" is a astronomical term for a cloud of gas and dust. "Nebulae" is the plural of "Nebula" and refers to more than one such cloud.

Yes. Most, of a galaxy's mass is stars and nebulae, not black holes.
They are the smallest manifestations of dark nebulae with sizes less than 3 light years across, and are most easily visible when silhouetted in front of emission nebulae or reflection nebulae. Though upper limits are difficult to decide, they generally contain between 0.1 and 2000 solar masses of gas and dust (above this they are simply known as dark nebulae), and form isolated stars, not massive star clusters. Bok Globules typically have temperatures of around 10 Kelvin.
The heaviest element that can be produced prior to supernova is Iron (Fe).
A galaxy is the biggest among the three. Galaxies contain billions to trillions of stars, as well as other celestial objects like planets and planetary nebulae. A planetary system refers to a star with its orbiting planets, while a planetary nebula is a glowing shell of gas ejected by a dying star.
A star that has produced more energy than its own gravity can hold is known as a supernova. This explosive event releases a tremendous amount of energy and leads to the destruction of the star. Supernovae are among the most powerful and energetic events in the universe.
In general yes because Betelgeuse is only a single star, albeit a big one. Nebulae are huge clouds of gas within which stars form
