  B) Cepheids variables are supermassive stars that are on the verge of becoming supernovae. Therefore they allow us to choose candidates to watch if we hope to observe a supernova.
  C) Cepheids variables are a type of irregular galaxy, much more common in the early universe. Therefore they help to understand how galaxies formed.
  D) Cepheids variables are pulsating stars whose pulsation periods are directly related to their true luminosities. Therefore they can be used as distance indicators.
