☆☞ Here is ur answer ☜☆
✔✔ The material in a white dwarf no longer undergoes fusion reactions, so the star has no source of energy.
✔✔ As a result, it cannot support itself by the heat generated by fusion against gravitational collapse, but is supported only by electron degeneracy pressure, causing it to be extremely dense.

ANSWER:-------------
{ Degenerate matter has other unusual properties. }
example,
{more massive a white dwarf is, the smaller it is.}
{ This is because the more mass a white dwarf has,}
{ more its electrons must squeeze together to maintain enough outward pressure to support the extra mass. }
{However, there is a limit on the amount of mass a white dwarf can have.}
