Explain why the life cycle of a star can be compared to the life cycle of a human.

star is born when clouds of dust and elements are gathered together in a certain space due to gravity, more and more mass and therefore pressure builds. when the pressure becomes enough to overcome the electronic repulsive force between two hydrogen nuclei, they are forced together and massive amounts of energy are given off forming helium atoms. this energy is then used to fuse other nuclei together. this could be compared to the way human life starts, where instead of 2 nuclei joining together to start a life cycle, two gametes, or sex cells are joined together.
