An important part of the lifecycle of galaxies like the Milky Way is the self regulation of formation of future generations of stars. Which statement best describes this process? A) Massive stars explode as Supernovae, heating nearby gas which then can't form stars, and even forcing the gas out of the galaxy in a superbubble. B) Low mass stars like our Sun explode as Supernovae, heating nearby gas which then can't form stars, and even forcing the gas out the galaxy in a superbubble. C) Stars fuse new elements in their cores which mix with nearby gas clouds, preventing the collapse of the clouds and hence stopping new star formation. D) The stars lock up material in their cores (like White Dwarf and Neutron Stars) meaning they can act as gravitational seeds for future star formation.
