I. Alpha Centauri and Pollux are two stars that are at the same stage as the
Sun
II. 40 Eridani B is towards the end of its life cycle.
III. Spica emits higher energy than Barnard’s Star.
IV. When Polaris enters stage 5 its relative luminosity increases and its surface
temperature decreases
V. Sun is most luminous at stage 3.
Correct Incorrect
A. I, II, IV III, V
B. I, IV II, III, V
