Are nuclear reactions and nuclear fusions the same thing?
Nuclear fusion is a nuclear reaction, but so is fission. So not all nuclear reactions are fission.
What does Nuclear Fusion have to do with stars?
The stars produce their heat from nuclear fusion reactions. Work on earth to produce controllable nuclear fusion is concentrating on one particular reaction, between deuterium and tritium, because it is the easiest to get going (though hard enough!). Stars operate with other reactions but all of the nuclear fusion type. You can read more in Wikipedia 'Nuclear fusion'
Nuclear reactions such as fusion and fission convert?
Nuclear reactions convert very small amounts of matter into significant amounts of energy.
How is a nuclear fission reaction controlled in a nuclear reaction?
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.
How is a nuclear fission reaction controlled in nuclear reactor?
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.
Do stars combust?
Stars are not powered by combustion; they are powered by nuclear fusion, which is a fundamentally different and far more energetic process.

Is the sun electrical?
No. The sun is powered by nuclear fusion.
