At sun's surface, the temperature is enough for two hydrogen(deuterium) molecules to fuse and form a helium molecule. Due to availability of optimum temperature at the surface of sun, the reaction takes place continuously and energy due to nuclear fusion is continuously liberated.

Where in the Sun do fusion reactions happen?
core and radiation
How does the sun create energy and where does it happen?
By nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium nuclei, in the core.
Is the sun fueled by fusion?
Yes the sun is fueled by fusion.
What will happen to the sun when it runs out of fuel for fusion?
first red giant then white dwarf ultimately DEAD
What fusion takes place in the center of the sun?
Nuclear Fusion
Where in the Sun do fusion reactions happen?
core and radiation
Where does nuclear fusion happen on the sun?
Only at the core, where the temperatures and pressures are high enough.
Why is the sun's energy generated in the center and not from its surface?
The sun is powered by the fusion of hydrogen and helium in it's center. The heat in the center of the sun, and the pressure in the center, is great enough to cause the fusion to happen.
What does happen within the sun is it fission or fusion?
Fusion only, there are no heavy elements like uranium so there can be no fission taking place
How does the sun create energy and where does it happen?
By nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei into helium nuclei, in the core.
Is the sun fueled by fusion?
Yes the sun is fueled by fusion.
What are the products of fusion on the sun?
What is a finalproduct of nuclear fusion in the sun
What will happen to the sun when it runs out of fuel for fusion?
first red giant then white dwarf ultimately DEAD
How does fusion relate to the sun?
The energy of the Sun is produced by nuclear fusion - the fusion of hydrogen into helium.
Is oxygen the fusion in the interior of the sun?
No, it is hydrogen that is the fuel for fusion in the sun
Where does the fusion reacion occur on the sun?
Fusion occurs in the core of the Sun
What is the cause of suns release of radiant energy?
Nuclear fusion in the center of the Sun heats it up.Nuclear fusion in the center of the Sun heats it up.Nuclear fusion in the center of the Sun heats it up.Nuclear fusion in the center of the Sun heats it up.
