B.

The energy in nuclear fusion can't be generated in a controlled manner hence difficult to use in a nuclear power plant as a away to produce clean energy.

Explanation:

The reactions in thermonuclear bombs use very highly enriched radioactive elements that release a lot of energy at a go hence the enormous explosions they cause. A nuclear power plant would require this enormous energy to be released slowly  to generate electricity. It requires great technology to control the release of this nuclear energy because it requires the control of the rate of chain reactions occurring at a particular time.  If the chain reactions are too many at a time, the power plant could explode.

Answer:

B) Osmosis of water molecules from unknown solution A likely caused the increase in mass observed.

Explanation:

Osmosis is a type of <em>diffusion </em>(a random movement of molecules to an area of lower concentration from an area of higher concentration) of water. Like other molecules, water can pass through a cell membrane and it will diffuse across the membrane, along its own concentration gradient independent of other particles that could be present in solution. The concentration of water in a solution is <em>inversely </em>(opposite) related to the concentration of the solute, meaning that water will move from a region of high water potential to a region of lower water potential during osmosis.

Unknown solution A had the highest water potential with a sucrose concentration of 0.0 M. This means that water diffused through the membranes of the cells in the sweet potato cube as it moved along its own <em>concentration gradient</em> (from a region of high water potential to a region of lower water potential) causing an increase in the mass of the sweet potato cube
