At the core of a star, the sun for example, the pressure due to gravity is greatest and gives the best conditions for fusion to start. Heat then flows outwards in all directions from the core.

What layer of the sun does nuclear fusion occur?
It has to be at hundreds of millions of degrees kelvin, before a fusion reaction between deuterium and tritium will start
When does nuclear fusion occur?
nuclear fusion is not a natural occurrence, it is when two atoms are fused together
Why does nuclear fusion not occur on earth?
Because the conditions of temperature and pressure that occur in stars do not occur on earth
Where does nuclear fusion occur in the sun and how does it travel to the rest of the solar system?
well it occurs in the core of the sun, and it travels because it is shot out of the sun because it has too much pressure.
Nuclear fusion can only occur in areas of?
In areas of high temperature and high pressure
How does nuclear fusion occur in the sun's interior core?
High temp and pressure
At 15.6 million degrees Celsius the temperature of the Suns core is high enough for nuclear what to occur?
For nuclear fusion.

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.

Why only in the sun's core does nuclear fusion occur?
The rest of the sun is too cold and too low pressure.
What is the Nuclear process that occurs in the core of the sun?
Nuclear fusion.
What is one place with temperatures high enough for nuclear fusion to occur?
Interior of the sun.
Where does nuclear fusion happen on the sun?
Only at the core, where the temperatures and pressures are high enough.
