Activity 1.1: Statement completion
Stellar nucleosynthesis is the process by which __________are
created within stars by combining
the ________ and _________ together from the nuclei of
_____________. All of the atoms in the universe began as_________.
__________ inside stars transforms hydrogen into ____________,
____________, and ___________. Heavier elements are created in
different types of stars as they ___________.

C. Engagement Monitoring/ Scaffolding
Stages of star life cycle and the nuclear fusion reaction

The diagram shows the Proton-Proton Chain reaction in main
sequence star. This is the process by which average star gets their
energy and convert Hydrogen into Helium. It starts with proton and
neutron fused together to form deuterium. When one proton collides
with deuterium, Helium-3 is formed. Two Helium-3 collided will form
Helium-4.
Case is different in massive star or star eight times larger
than solar mass. They undergo CNO (Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen)
cycle to convert Hydrogen into Helium. You can see at the right how
Carbon 12 fused with proton (H) and form Nitrogen-13. Nitrogen-13
undergoes beta decay to form Carbon-13. Carbon13 captures proton
(H) and Nitrogen 14 is formed. Nitrogen 14 captures proton and
Oxygen-15 is produced. Oxygen-15 undergoes beta decay and
produces Nitrogen-15. Nitrogen-15 fused with proton gives off Helium
and ends up with Carbon-12. Then the process repeats again.
Tri alpha process happens in red giant star once they leave the stage
of main sequence star. This is how three Helium-4 are converted into
Carbon.
A star accumulates more mass and continues to grow into red super
giant. Alpha particle fusion happens at its core and creates more
heavy elements until Iron. This is known as the Alpha ladder process.
Neutron Capture
a neutron is added to a seed nucleus. Below is the representation of
how neutron is captured, and heavier nucleus is formed.
Neutron capture can be slow or rapid;

a. S-process or slow process happens when there is a
slow rate of capturing neutron while there is a faster
rate of radioactive decay hence increasing the proton
by 1.
b. R-process or rapid process means that there is faster

rate of capturing neutron before it undergoes
radioactive decay thus, more neutrons can be
combined at the nucleus. This is what happens in a
supernova forming heavier elements than Iron with
the process known as supernova nucleosynthesis.
Activity 2: Check your Knowledge
Directions: Were you able to label all the stages of star? Review the
video in the previous activity. You will notice that following the
sequence will reveal what happens in each stage of star. To
understand further, answer the following questions below.
1. What element from space is pulled by gravity and turn into a
protostar?
________________________________________________________
2. What will happen if a low massive main sequence star runs out of
hydrogen fuel?
________________________________________________________
3. How are heavy elements such as Carbon, Oxygen and Neon
formed during star formation?
________________________________________________________
4. Why is it impossible for any matter such as light and radiation to
escape from a black hole?
________________________________________________________
5. Why do you think massive star has shorter life span than average
star?
________________________________________________________
Activity 3: Build Your Own Atom

Using Phet Interactive Simulations, virtually recreate how stars form
into different stages as a result of heavy element nuclear fusion (the
combination of nuclei to form a heavier one). Phet Simulations are
demonstrated in the video you downloaded to your electronic tablet.
Create a brief video that discusses one stage of the star's life cycle
and the nuclear fusion reaction.
