Interpretation: The reason due to which the elevated temperatures are required to initiate the fusion reactions but not fission reactions needs to be explained.

Concept introduction: The energy coupled in the nuclei is discharged in the atomic responses. The fission reaction is the splitting of heavier nuclei core into lighter cores and combination is the converging of nuclei to frame a greater and heavier core.
