← ScienceWhich outcome results when electron degeneracy pressure fails within a supergiant star's core?
A)Neutron star matter density increases✓
B)Elements undergo nuclear transmutation
C)Hydrogen shell fusion ignites stably
D)Supernova energy intensifies gradually
💡 Explanation
A Type II supernova occurs because gravity overcomes electron degeneracy collapsing the core. This increases neutron density because the protons and electrons convert to neutrons; therefore forming a neutron star, rather than a more gradual change.
