Answer 2

Answer;

Nuclear fusion

Nuclear fusion reactions convert protons into helium; thus, becoming the source of all energy radiated by the sun.

Explanation;

• Nuclear fusion is a type of nuclear reaction in which two or more nuclei of atoms join to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.
• Nuclear fusion takes place in the sun where protons or hydrogen nuclei collide in a nuclear fusion reaction at very high temperatures to form Helium. This nuclear fusion results in the conversion of 4 hydrogen atoms into helium atom.
