B

While nuclear energy does not pollute the environment, it poses the risk of radiation which is harmful to organisms because it causes lethal mutations.

Explanation:

Nuclear fission, for example, releases neutrons and other particles (at very high speeds) that can ionize materials including DNA. This will induce mutations of DNA most of which are usually lethal to organisms. Gamma and X- rays are also produced by fusion reactions and  if exposed to organisms also cause mutations on DNA through double stranded breaks. Therefore, the risk of an accident of a nuclear reactor can have immense ramifications on the ecosystems.

So there is a change in mass which for the purpose of this question should be  quite different. His sister's ought to be much lighter than his. He would find it easier to pick up.
