Compare and contrast the life of a star that has a mass the of a star that has a mass similar to our Sun with the life of a star more massive than our Sun.

Helloyo!

Massive Star

They are typically greater then 8 molar masses. They typically have a quick main sequence phase, a short red supergiant phase and a death of a spectacular Cosmic event: Supernova. From there they can either become Neutron Stars or Black Holes

Medium-Sized Star

They usually have a Normal Main Sequence phase (Billions of years). From there they bevome Red Giants and expell their mass in a planetary nebula. From there they shrink and become white dwarfs first, then black dwarfs.

Hope it helps ya

...though astronomy is actually physics btw...

I believe that the most fitting answer for this question would be curiosity. All scientific experiments start with curiosity. A scientist observes something in the natural world and begins to wonder why it happens this way. This curiosity leads to research and experiments, completing the cycle of scientific inquiry. Hope this helps.
