Question
it takes larger stars to make elements as heavy as iron and nickel. t/f f t
Brief Explanations
In stellar nucleosynthesis, larger (more massive) stars have higher temperatures and pressures in their cores, which are required to fuse lighter elements into heavier ones like iron and nickel. Smaller stars (like our Sun) can't produce elements as heavy as iron and nickel through fusion in their main lifetimes. So the statement is true.
