Answer:

.

Fusion powers the Sun and stars as hydrogen atoms fuse together to form helium, and matter is converted into energy.

nuclear fission reactors include the possibility of radiation-releasing nuclear accidents, the problems of radioactive waste disposal, and the possibility of contributing to nuclear weapon proliferation
