These are stars that have exhausted their core's supply of hydrogen by switching to a thermonuclear fusion made of hydrogen in a shell that surrounds the core.

Are red giant stars the largest?
No, red giant stars are not the largest stars in the universe. There are stars known as supergiant and hypergiant stars that are even larger than red giants. These stars can be hundreds to thousands of times larger than our Sun.
What type of stars have high absolute magnitude but low temperatures?
Red giants.
Are main sequence stars older than red giants?
No, red giants are generally older than main sequence stars, as red giants have no hydrogen left for fuel, and burn helium instead. where as Main Sequence stars burn hydrogen for fuel.
Do blue stars and red giant stars have similar brightness values?
Blue stars are generally much brighter than red giant stars. Blue stars are very hot and luminous, emitting a larger amount of energy compared to red giants, which are cooler and typically less bright.
Name the four main types of stars?
The four main types of stars are main sequence stars, red giants, white dwarfs, and supernovae. These types are classified based on their size, temperature, and stage of life.
What type of star is Star A?
Red stars (Red dwarfs and red giants) have a spectral class of M.
Are red giant stars the largest?
No, red giant stars are not the largest stars in the universe. There are stars known as supergiant and hypergiant stars that are even larger than red giants. These stars can be hundreds to thousands of times larger than our Sun.
What type of star is a red star?
Red stars (Red dwarfs and red giants) have a spectral class of M.
What type of stars have high absolute magnitude but low temperatures?
Red giants.
Is the nearest stars mostly red giants?
No, they are mostly red dwarf stars.
What color are small cool stars?
Small cool stars, such as red dwarfs, are typically red or orange in color. This is because their surface temperatures are relatively low, causing them to emit more red and orange light compared to other colors.
What are Featureless galaxies containing old red main-sequence stars and red giants called?
If they have red stars including giants in, they can't be all that featureless.
Why do stars not become red giants?
Most medium mass stars such as our Sun DO become red giants. Smaller stars do not have enough mass to initiate helium fusion when the hydrogen supply begins to run low, and do not become red giants.
What type f stars are in the milky way galaxy?
The Milky Way galaxy contains a variety of stars, including main sequence stars (like our Sun), giants, supergiants, white dwarfs, and neutron stars. The most common stars are red dwarfs, making up about 70-80% of all stars in the Milky Way. There are also many other types of stars, such as yellow dwarfs (like our Sun), blue giants, and red giants.
What do all stars eventually turn into?
All stars eventually turn into Red Giants or Super Giants
What are red stars called?
I think you are referring to red giants.
Are main sequence stars older than red giants?
No, red giants are generally older than main sequence stars, as red giants have no hydrogen left for fuel, and burn helium instead. where as Main Sequence stars burn hydrogen for fuel.
