HINT The core of the sun The core of a red giant star The remnants from the Big bang The core of supernovae Correct! next 1. Where does the carbon in your pinky come from? Exit

1. Where does the carbon in your pinky come from? Incorrect Red giants stars stop nuclear fusion and at some point only produce carbon, and since everything is made of carbon our pinky is an example back next HINT Exit

It’s a big star that uses a lot of its energy… back Exit
