Before a star is a star, it is an enormous cloud of gases. At the start, wisps of gas and drifts of dust collect, their gravity drawing them together. As more stuff gathers, its combined gravitation grows stronger. Eventually, the cloud pulls itself into a massive ball of material.

Describe the cause-and-effect relationships in this passage that lead to the formation of a star.

Gravity causes gas and dust to come together. More gas and dust combining causes the gravitation to strengthen. The stronger gravitation causes a massive ball of material that eventually becomes a star.

Explanation:

Cause: Wisps of gas and drifts of dust collect

Effect: The cloud's gravitation grows and pulls itself into a massive ball of material

a complex sentence consists of an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses.  

to write complex sentences, we must use subordinating conjunctions.  

all the complex sentences begin with a subordinating conjunction and when it occurs, a comma must be place at the end of the dependent clause. on the contrary, if the sentence begins with an independent clause, then no comma is used.
