Which of the following is true regarding nuclear fission and nuclear fusion?
Zarrin [17]
<h2>Nuclear Fission and Nuclear Fusion - Option C</h2>

Nuclear fission and nuclear fusion both of these processes can provide energy. Nuclear fission is the process in which heavy nucleus splits into smaller parts. When they split into smaller particles then it releases energy.

On the other hand, nuclear fusion is the process in which small particles fuse together to form a heavy nucleus. With the formation of heavy nucleus, it also provides energy.

Therefore, both these processes release or provide energy.
