What is the source of energy in nuclear power plants?
The source of energy in almost all nuclear power plants is fission or the splitting of the atom. There are a few experimental fusion power plants, (or the joining of the atoms), but, there are few of them, since the energy needed to produce fusion is extremly high, and only last a few seconds. Around 99.99% of nuclear power plants are fission power plants.
How are hydroelectric plants and nuclear power plants the same?
The only similarity I can think of is that they both produce electricity
Nuclear power will end electricity crisis?
Only if more plants are built!
Why do you need nuclear power plants?
You have to have power plants because without them we would not have enough power =)
What are the positive sides of nuclear power?
It's greener and safer than fossil fuel power plants, but produces far more energy than wind or solar power plants. For example, coal power plants produce the same amount of radiation as Three Mile Island every few days, and produce extremely large amounts of particulate pollution, which kill the same number of people as Chernobyl every few weeks. Wind turbines cost about the same amount as nuclear plants, per watt, but to produce the same amount of energy, they require 300 times as much land.

Which zone has only a few plants and animals living there?
timbuktu
What are the costs per month to run a nuclear power station?
I think you could only get this from an operating power company that owns nuclear plants. You would need to average out the fuel cost per month, as refuelling happens only every few years.
Where there any design changes to current nuclear power plants as a result of the Chernobyl disaster?
A few, yes, but Chernobyl was considered a dreafully designed nuclear power plant from the outset, and few plants would have imitated that design, especially after the disaster.
How do plants grow in light?
from light and water not only light,but from light plants take the power of it
Where are solar energy power plants located?
Solar energy plants are generally located where there are few clouds. The desert is a good location.
Cold region that supports only a few types of plants?
Tundra
