Nuclear fusion is the combining of atomic nuclei to produce energy and new types of
galben [10]
Im not sure how to answer this since there were no choices given but I will answer by telling you what nuclear fusion is...

so basically nuclear fusion is the merging or combining of 2 isotopes, typically isotopes of hydrogen, under conditions of extreme temperature and pressure thus resulting in the release of massive amounts of energy. I think the answer to your question would be new types of electricity because the heat emitted from the reaction could be turned into electricity by using its steam. This is what happens in nuclear reactors  

i hop this answers your question

The ocean is maintaining a constant salinity because:
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
In mid-ocean ridge areas, ocean water is cycled through the crust because of the high heat flow in the area. Water in the rock is heated over the magmas, rising up and drawing in cold water from the sides. This process is occurring all over the world, and is the primary means for maintaining ocean salinity in a relatively constant range over the long term, as elements in the sea water when it is heated react with the rocks. There is so much water flow, cumulatively over the entire world, that this process basically buffers ocean chemistry.

Obviously large increases or decreases in salinity can and do occur in isolated basins that do not have free exchange with the open oceans.
