splitting apart vs. joining together
Nuclear fusion is the phenomenon in which two lighter nuclei get fused to form heavier nucleus with the production of energy. Best example is SUN and hydrogen bomb. But nuclear fission of breaking heavier into lighter with the emission of energy. Example uranium-235. So atom bomb Nuclear fusion has clean energy but fission has hazard energy
Energy
the splitting of a nucleus
Nuclear decay is a spontaneous process where an unstable atomic nucleus transforms into a more stable one by emitting radiation, such as alpha particles or beta particles. In contrast, nuclear fission involves the intentional splitting of a heavy nucleus, like uranium or plutonium, into smaller nuclei, accompanied by the release of a significant amount of energy. While both processes involve changes in atomic nuclei, nuclear decay occurs naturally and randomly, whereas nuclear fission is typically induced in a controlled environment, such as in a nuclear reactor.
Even though the idea of using controlled nuclear fusion for human benefits has been studied since the 1950s, there is still no success in controlling it. Fusion reactors, then, would have to be defined as H-bombs and stars at this point. EDIT: NONSENSE! I suggest you google Tomak. This is controlled fusion and currently best international practice will get you 10x the energy you put into it. It isn't used because it is more expensive that oil, coal and fission power.

Nuclear fusion is the joining of two or more nuclei into one nucleus (apex) CORRECT ANSWER!!!!!!
Carbon is not commonly used as nuclear fuel because it does not readily undergo nuclear fission reactions. Elements such as uranium and plutonium are more suitable for use as nuclear fuels due to their ability to sustain nuclear chain reactions.

fusion can be used in several ways:external electronic neutron sources, uses a miniaturized particle accelerator with tritium gas to produce a burst of neutrons to initiate fission at the best time for desired yieldboosting, injects a controlled amount of deuterium and/or tritium gas into a hollow core, when the device is detonated this undergoes fusion producing a large burst of neutrons increasing the fission efficiency; this permits either a reduction in amount of fissile material required or an increase in yield or both; this also permits dial-a-yield bombs having selectable variable yieldstaged fusion, a bomb permitting unlimited theoretical yield; also commonly called the hydrogen bomb

0%. No one has an operating fusion power plant. Issues of plasma containment have not been solved. We are working on it, but commercial application is 50 to 100 years away, at best - and it is possible that there will never be a viable solution.
