Which two statements describe what happens to the nuclei of atoms during a fusion reaction? O A. Large nuclei break apart into two or more smaller nuclei. O B. A small amount of mass in the nuclei that combine is converted to energy. O c. Each nucleus formed has fewer protons than each original nucleus had. O D. Nuclei with small masses combine to form nuclei with larger masses.​

D. Nuclei with small masses combine to form nuclei with larger masses.

B. A small amount of mass in the nuclei that combine is converted to energy

Explanation:

A nuclear fusion, in contrary to fission, is the process by which the nuclei of two atoms combine to form a much larger atom with a large nuclei. Likewise, during a fusion reaction, a large amount of energy is released from the small amount of mass in the nuclei (two) that combines.

According to this question, the following are true of a fusion reaction:

- Nuclei with small masses combine to form nuclei with larger masses.

- A small amount of mass in the nuclei that combine is converted to enormous energy.

B and D

Explanation: that's what I got on my test and it was right

your picture is not part of the scientific method.
