An explosion that destroys the outer portion of a star is known as aa. supernova.
b. supergiant.
c. protostar.
d. nebula

Answers

an explosion that destroys the outer portion of a star is known as a (C.) supernova.

Check out the Glencoe Earth Science textbook provided by PennFoster. The answer is on page 851. 
Technically all of these answers are incorrect , because when our Sun becomes a red giant and then collapses into a white dwarf, it will shed it's outer layers but this is not considered massive enough to be a supernova so technically none of your answers are correct but only one of your answers is actually an explosion. A would be the best answer

Name four strategies/ways which the kruger national park combats rhino poaching

Answers

The rangers of South Africa refuse to give up on their ongoing battle against rhino poaching in South Africa and Kruger National Park. Despite the rescue efforts and extra funding, rhino poaching is now at an all time high, leaving conservationists with no choice but to dehorn rhino in order to protect the species.

Protecting rhino from poachers has become part of the South African Government's National Development plan, as well as its environmental assets. Four Squirrel helicopters and new night vision equipment are among the latest efforts by the rangers of Kruger National Park to fight the battle against poaching. Poachers are currently winning the battle as rhino poaching increased by 30% in Kruger National Park, as of October 2015, yet the rangers of KNP insists that this battle is still far from over. 

A number of rhino will be moved to safer locations in private game reserves to protect them from poachers. The rangers of KNP believe that there are 12 - 15 groups of poachers that operate within the park. They hunt in groups of 3 and are armed with hunting rifles and silencers. 

The Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre rescues and cares for young rhino that are orphaned. The location of these young orphaned rhino is a secret as one of the orphans were already victim to poachers. The orphans are kept under 24-hour surveillance and their progress can be witnessed via the live rhino cam at Africam.
