question 11
the suns energy comes from ______________.
nuclear fallout
nuclear fission
nuclear fusion
electricity
The Sun's energy is generated through nuclear fusion. Nuclear fusion is the process where light atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, releasing a large amount of energy in the process. In the Sun, hydrogen nuclei fuse to form helium, and this fusion reaction is the source of its energy. Nuclear fallout is the residual radioactive material from a nuclear explosion. Nuclear fission is the splitting of a heavy nucleus, which is not the process in the Sun. Electricity is not the fundamental source of the Sun's energy.
