The most important fusion process in nature is that which powers the stars. The net result is the fusion of four protons into one alpha particle, with the release of two positrons, two neutrinos (which changes two of the protons into neutrons), and energy, but several individual reactions are involved, depending on the mass of the star. For stars the size of the sun or smaller, the proton-proton chain dominates.

Sun contain hydrogen and helium and low concentrations of other elements..
Starch is made up of three elements: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. These elements are not directly derived from the sun, as starch is synthesized by plants through photosynthesis using carbon dioxide from the air, water from the soil, and sunlight energy.
Uranium is not directly produced by the sun. Uranium is formed through the process of supernova nucleosynthesis during the explosion of massive stars. Elements like uranium are created during supernova explosions, where the intense heat and pressure fusion lighter elements into heavier ones.
The initial substances needed to form the Sun were primarily hydrogen and helium, which are the two lightest and most abundant elements in the universe. These elements were produced in the early universe during the Big Bang nucleosynthesis. Over time, gravitational collapse within a region of a molecular cloud led to the accumulation of these gases, eventually igniting nuclear fusion in the core and giving birth to the Sun. Other heavier elements were present in smaller amounts, having been formed in previous generations of stars.

Elements can be produced in the sun through nuclear fusion reactions that occur due to the intense heat and pressure. These conditions are not present in Earth's atmosphere, which is why elements are not produced there. Earth's atmosphere primarily consists of gases and does not contain the necessary conditions for nuclear fusion to occur.
The sun only produces one element: helium.The sun consumes hydrogen, via a two stage fusion process of first producing the intermediate heavy hydrogen isotope called deuterium, then from that producing helium.

From hydrogen, isotopes of helium are formed through nuclear reactions.
The temperature and pressure in the sun are just a bit higher than anywhere on Earth.
Elements can be produced in the sun through nuclear fusion reactions, which require extremely high temperatures and pressures. These conditions are not present in Earth's atmosphere, so elements are not produced in the same way here. Elements on Earth are primarily produced through processes like supernova explosions and nuclear reactions in labs.
Hydrogen, helium, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen are the most common elements likely to be formed in the Sun at some point in its life. These elements are produced through nuclear fusion reactions in the Sun's core.
UV light is produced by the sun. The UV light produced by other stars is minimal once it reaches the sun and does not affect it in any appreciable way.
Well, Uranium is an element, while the sun is a nuclear reaction (fusion). All stars are fueled by fusion reactions, which produce elements inside their core all the way upto Iron. Heavier elements, such as Uranium (and gold, and silver, and mercury, and such) are produced when a very large star (larger then out sun) goes super nova. So much energy is released that the iron and other elements that were produced by fusion, are forced together to make even heavier elements. The reason that the sun (and all stars in their normal life span) stop at iron, is because Iron is the heaviest element that can be made by fusion before the process begins to use up energy, rather then yield energy.
