Which statement is not associated with nuclear fission?

Question

Accepted Answer

(b) Energy generation in stars. — The energy source for all stars is nuclear fusion. When two light nuclei fuse to form a larger nucleus, energy is released. It is called nuclear fusion. In a process called nuclear fission, the nucleus of a heavy atom (such as uranium, plutonium or thorium), when bombarded with low energy neutrons, can be split apart into lighter nuclei. When this is done, a tremendous amount of energy is released.
