Gmail stacks the messages sent back and forth between 2 or more people so you can view them all as a single strand.
Each message you send is grouped with all the responses you receive.
These are called conversations. Grouping messages this way allows you to
quickly retrieve related messages and view all your messages in context.

Stars function in Gmail as a way of marking emails that you would like to pay attention to.
You can star an email simply by clicking on the little star icon on the left hand side of any email when on inbox preview. When you decide to look for them again, you can simply click on the “Starred’ button and it will retrieve all the emails you have chosen to mark with a star.
There is also an “important” button to indicate that an email is also important. Gmail will automatically indicate that an email from this person is important again if you select this option often.

Labels are a way to identify email by topic. A single conversation (email) can have
several labels, so you are not forced to choose one particular label for each message you receive. That way, if a conversation covers more than one topic, you can retrieve it with ANY of the labels that you have applies
And you can always search for it.

Working with labels Labels in Gmail are a bit like folders Clicking on a label displays all messages in ALL MAIL with that label. The idea is

Create a new label by clicking on the Label icon:

arrow to the right of a label. Note: If you don't have any labels yet, first create a label
to see the options above. Select a color from the palette that appears. Changes
will be instantly reflected in Gmail. You may also customize colors for your labels by clicking on the square to the right of a label and selecting Add custom color.
You can remove a color by selecting Remove color at the bottom of the color palette.
