Nuclear fission does not produce more energy than nuclear fusion.
In nuclear fusion (6.4 MeV) per nucleon is given out which is much greater than
the energy given out per nucleon (1 MeV) during a nuclear fission reaction.
It isn't, in general. Thermonuclear bombs use a fission bomb to generate the heat and pressure required to start the fusion process, but there are other ways of doing it (stars do so by gravity, for instance).
Fission reactions start naturally if the proportion of U-235 is high enough; there is evidence this has happened in places in Africa in the distant past of Earth's history. Fusion reactions require more heat and pressure than we really know how to provide so as to keep a reaction going.
Detonation of a fusion hydrogen bomb is initiated by the primary fission bomb, which generates high temperatures and pressures needed to trigger fusion reactions in the hydrogen isotopes. The fission bomb compresses and heats the fusion fuel to the point where nuclear fusion reactions can occur, releasing vastly more energy than the fission reaction alone.
Fusion reactions require much higher temperatures and pressures to overcome the Coulomb barrier between atomic nuclei and achieve fusion. Additionally, controlling and sustaining the high temperature plasma for fusion is technically challenging and expensive compared to the relatively simpler process of inducing fission reactions with neutron bombardment.
It depends on the specific context. Fission is the splitting of an atomic nucleus into two smaller nuclei, releasing energy, while fusion is the combining of two smaller nuclei into a larger one, also releasing energy. Each reaction has distinct characteristics and applications in different scenarios.
the importance of nuclear reactions are very important.for energy purpose these reactions are very important because many energetic outgoing particles produce fission and fusion.
Oxygen undergoes fusion reactions in the cores of massive stars, where it can fuse into heavier elements. Oxygen does not undergo fission reactions naturally.
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.

Yes, fusion reactions occur in a hydrogen bomb, which is a type of nuclear bomb. The high temperatures and pressures generated by the fission reaction in the bomb can trigger fusion reactions between hydrogen isotopes. This fusion reaction releases a large amount of energy, contributing to the destructive power of the bomb.
