Because of the energy source and it can also provide the needed speed for fusion.

Not speed. The nuclear fusion of is hydrogen to helium, and it occurs because the core of the star as it developed gained sufficient pressure and temperature for the reaction to start and become self-sustaining. The outer regions of a star are neither hot enough nor compressed enough for fusion to occur.

What part of the nuclear powerplant does the chain reaction occur?
In the reactor core, which is the volume filled with the fuel assemblies
When are changes of energy to mass and mass to energy observable?
-- In the cores of stars, where nuclear fusion reactions are taking place. -- Inside the casing of a nuclear weapon at the moment of detonation. -- In the fuel rods in the core of a nuclear power generating station. -- At the point of collision in the experimental target area in a particle accelerator.
What reaction produces the suns energy?
nuclear fusion reactions at the core of sun
Is it true that nuclear radiation comes from the decay of atomic nuclei?
Yes, the decay of unstable atomic nuclei is the source of nuclear radiation.
Part of power plant where fission takes place?
In a nuclear power plant, fission takes place in the core.
What is the place where controlled nuclear fission reactions take place?
In the core of a nuclear reactor
What element is the end product of the nuclear reactions taking place in the Sun's core?
Helium
Does the sun glow due to nuclear reactions in its corona?
No. The sun glows because of nuclear fusion that takes place in its core.
What part of the nuclear powerplant does the chain reaction occur?
In the reactor core, which is the volume filled with the fuel assemblies
Where the sun gets its energy?
nuclear reactions at its core
Where are nuclear reactions in the sun?
The nuclear reactions are all over the sun but between core and surface the central part observes more.
When are changes of energy to mass and mass to energy observable?
-- In the cores of stars, where nuclear fusion reactions are taking place. -- Inside the casing of a nuclear weapon at the moment of detonation. -- In the fuel rods in the core of a nuclear power generating station. -- At the point of collision in the experimental target area in a particle accelerator.
What is the site of nuclear fusion on the sun?
If you are asking where does solar nuclear fusion take place, then that would be at the core of stars.
What is the central portion of a star that produces energy through nuclear reactions?
core
What reaction produces the suns energy?
nuclear fusion reactions at the core of sun
What part of the sun is responsible for the sun's energy?
The nuclear reactions in the Suns core
What does the inner core do for the sun?
That's where the nuclear reactions occur that keep it lit.
