Which consequence results when fusion slows inside a star?

💡 Explanation

If the rate of fusion diminishes, the outward radiation pressure from the core decreases. This reduction triggers gravitational collapse, because hydrostatic equilibrium gets disrupted; therefore core collapse occurs rather than stability at elevated temperatures.
