Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A large cloud of gas and dust in outer space ejected by an aging star near the end of its life cycle.What stage in the life cycle is this describing?
A
Main Sequence
B
Planetary Nebula
C
Black Hole
D
Neutron Star
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A star like our Sun will become a white dwarf when it has exhausted its nuclear fuel. Near the end of its nuclear burning stage, such a star expels most of its outer material (creating a planetary nebula) until only the hot (T > 100, 000 K) core remains, which then settles down to become a young white dwarf.

Detailed explanation-2: -A nebula is a giant cloud of dust and gas in space. Some nebulae (more than one nebula) come from the gas and dust thrown out by the explosion of a dying star, such as a supernova. Other nebulae are regions where new stars are beginning to form. For this reason, some nebulae are called “star nurseries."

Detailed explanation-3: -Star-Forming Nebula Stars are born in clouds of gas and dust. One such stellar nursery is the Orion Nebula, an enormous cloud of gas and dust many light-years across. Turbulence from deep within these clouds creates high density regions called knots.

Detailed explanation-4: -as our sun (just on a larger scale) upto the Main Sequence stage, Then the massive stars expand into a Red Supergiant, Explode into a Supernova, Then turn into a Black Hole or a Neutron Star.

Detailed explanation-5: -Depending on its size, the star becomes either an average star or a massive star. The average star then becomes a red giant, a planetary nebula, and ends its life as a white dwarf. The massive star turns into a red supergiant, goes supernova, and ends up as a neutron star or a black hole-again, depending on its size.
