They grow until they reach a certain point that they are no longer stable and either explode into a black hole or super nova, or they become a white star (small star about the size of earth that will eventually stop giving of light).

Why do bigger stars die more quickly?

Bigger stars get hotter, and use up their fuel much faster than smaller stars.


Fusion reactions happen at a slower rate in bigger stars than in smaller ones?

Fusion reactions in bigger stars happen at a slower rate than in smaller stars because the higher pressure and temperature in bigger stars allow them to overcome the repulsive forces between positively charged atomic nuclei, enabling fusion to occur even at lower rates. Additionally, bigger stars have a larger supply of fuel, which can sustain fusion over longer periods compared to smaller stars.


Why do you think some smaller planet are heavier than the bigger ones?

They are much denser. it's the same with stars and neutron stars. Neutron stars are many times smaller than the original star but much heavier because they are so denser


How big are stars to planets?

Planets are a lot bigger than stars except the sun... the sun is a star. So to me the answer is a star is bigger and the stars are also smaller.Let's think about the actual sizes, not just how they appear in the sky.You may be thinking of the apparent sizes as seen from Earth. Stars like our Sun are a lot bigger than planets and there's lots of stars bigger than the Sun.However there are also stars a lot smaller than the Sun. So some stars aresmaller than some planets.For example "white dwarfs" have a lot more mass than the Earth, but they arenot much bigger.Let's be clear though, most stars are bigger than planets.
