Question
Part 1 Copy and answer the ff. questions in continuation of your activity 4 on your booklet 3. 1. Why is Big Bang the most reliable theory on the formation of the universe? Give its evidences and explain them briefly on how you understood them. 2. What is fundamental or elementary particles? Where did they come from? 3. Why did atoms not yet formed during the early times in the big bang timeline? How did the subatomic particles formed? What composed them? 3. Are you convince that their are much basic part than the subatomic particles? Defend your answers. 4. What are stars? What make them up? Why is that the smaller stars live longer than the massive and giant stars? 5. What is nuclear fusion? Where it happens? What is its role in the life of stars? What it does with gravity? 6. If giants stars already expended its fuel and were all converted to Iron, SUPERNOVA happens, how this event occured? 7. What is nucleosynthesis? What are the 3 types of nucleosynthesis and what are the significant contributions of this nucleosynthesis? 8. How did helium atoms formed in the early times of the universe? Explain proton-proton chain abd CNO cycle. You can use Filipino as you explain, you can also print00 pictures to easily visualize your explanation. 9. What happens if the hydrogen atoms are now converted to helium atoms? How is helium used to convert other elements heavier than helium upto iron? Explain the tri-alpha process and alpha ladder process. Again you can use Filipino to express your thoughts. You can use also the formula given in the discussion in explaining. 10. How the slow and rapid neutron process differ? What happens after neutron capture that helps universe produce the elements heavier than Iron? Show examples to better explain s and r- processes? 11. Write an essay about the lessons you have learned in the birth and death of stars.
