Does fission occur in the body?

No, fission does not naturally occur in the human body. Fission is a nuclear reaction that involves the splitting of atomic nuclei, which is not a process that happens in biological organisms.


What is it called when nuclear fission is repeated?

It is called nuclear chain fission reaction.


What particle is used to start nuclear fission?

In actuality, a spontaneous fission event begins a nuclear chain reaction. It kick starts a nuclear chain reaction. And a neutron from that fission will initiate another fission to continue and rev up that nuclear chain reaction.


Where does the energy come from in a nuclear fission reaction?

In a nuclear fission reaction, the energy comes from the splitting of atomic nuclei.


What is splitting of atomic nuclei?

Splitting of atomic nuclei, also known as nuclear fission, is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom is split into smaller parts. This process releases a significant amount of energy in the form of heat and radiation. Nuclear fission is used in nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.


In a nuclear fission reaction a freely moving neutron?

In a nuclear fission reaction, a freely moving neutron undergoes neutron capture and initiates the nuclear fission of a fuel atom.


What type of reaction happens in a nuclear power plant?

A nuclear fission reaction occurs in a nuclear power plant. This is the process where the nucleus of an atom is split, releasing large amounts of energy in the form of heat, which is used to generate electricity.


A nuclear reaction in which an atoms nucleus is split into two smaller nuclei and energy is released as heat is known as?

nuclear fission


What is an example of uncontrolled nuclear fission reaction?

Atomic fission bomb.


What type of reaction supplies the most energy?

fusion nuclear reaction followed by fission nuclear reaction


How does a nuclear disaster occur?

A nuclear disaster may occur when the radioactive materials are mishandled and which may lead to radioactive exposure or a chain reaction of nuclear fission, fusion. Most of these disasters are induced by the man made mistakes.


For a chain reaction to occur each vision must produce at least more fission reaction Apex?

In a chain reaction, each fission reaction must produce at least one additional fission reaction to sustain the reaction. This is necessary to achieve a self-sustaining nuclear reaction where each fission event leads to more fission events, releasing energy in the process. Without this multiplication of fission reactions, the chain reaction would not be able to continue and sustain itself.
