A Correct answer
Explanation

Core-collapse supernovae occur when massive stars (8+ solar masses) exhaust their nuclear fuel. Gravity causes the core to collapse, triggering a massive explosion. This is the primary mechanism for Type II supernovae. Fusion explosions don't cause supernovae - fusion actually prevents collapse by providing outward pressure.
