Question

Nuclear fusion occurs in stars.
a. True
b. False

Answer 1

Stars are powered by nuclear fusion in their cores, mostly converting hydrogen into helium. The production of new elements via nuclear reactions is called nucleosynthesis. A star's mass determines what other type of nucleosynthesis occurs in its core (or during explosive changes in its life cycle). READ THIS AND YOU WILL UNDERSTAND I THINK IS TRUE

Answer 2

Answer : The given statement is True.

Explanation -

Nuclear fusion is a thermonuclear reaction in which light stable nuclei combine with each other in order to form a heavy stable nucleus with the release of large amount of energy.

In case of stars, four hydrogen nuclei combine with each other to form a helium nucleus with a release of 26 Mev per cycle.

Thus, nuclear fusion occurs in stars is true statement.
