Compare and contrast nuclear fusion and nuclear fission.

Biology
1 answer:
Mnenie [13.5K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

With nuclear fission, a large atomic nucleus (such as a uranium nucleus) breaks apart into smaller nuclei, and energy is released. With nuclear fusion, small atomic nuclei (such as hydrogen) join to become larger nuclei, and energy is released. Fusion of hydrogen releases much more energy than any other type of either fusion or fission. Note that the dividing line between heavy nuclei and light nuclei is the iron nucleus, which is at the perfect point of nuclear stability, so that neither fusion nor fission of iron nuclei would release any energy.

Cnidaria is categorized under the Animalia kingdom. It is made up of more that eleven thousand species, which all live in aquatic habitats; either fresh or salt water environments. There are four basic classes of cnidarians, these are: Anthozoa, Cubozoa, Scyphozoan and Hydrozoa. Their common feature is the cnidocytes, which are specialized cells that they use to capture their preys.  

Cnidaria have two radial body types, which are called polyp and medusa. They used cnidocytes (stinging cells) to capture the foods they feed on.
