If the initial interstellar cloud in star formation has a mass sufficient to form hundreds of stars, how does a single star form from it?

B) The cloud is disrupted by rotation so that it reduces its mass down to that of a typical star.
C) One star forms at its center and blows the rest of the matter back into space.
D) One star forms and the rest of the matter goes into making planets, moons, and other objects of a solar system.
E) A supernova blows the cloud up and dissipates the majority of the gas.
