explain role of gravity in formation of a star.
as a star starts to form as a nebula, small amounts of matter collide and stick together, becoming larger masses with increasingly stronger gravity.
Am I correct? Please add any other info, thanks

From my perspective, that just makes a clump of matter. The fun part happens when the gravity gets so strong that the internal heat from pressure gets so high that the process of nuclear reaction starts, and the star lights up.
