Low-mass stars have much longer lifetimes than high-mass stars. Which stellar property is a direct cause of this difference?



A    Temperature
B    Radius
C    Luminosity
D    Composition


I think it's A or B. Radius as in size?

Couldn't find the edit button. But I think it's Temperature. Hotter it is, the faster it burns in a high-mass star. Just wanted to get another opinion.

Hello.
It's radius.  The larger the star the sooner it dies.  People have the same problem! Nerd Face
