As a result of worldwide human population growth, many countries are exploring the use of alternative energy sources. One
potential energy source is nuclear power
In nuclear power plants, atoms are split during fission reactions to produce heat. This heat then changes water to steam, and the
steam is used to tum a turbine, so electricity is generated. The heat that is produced by nuclear reactions is so great that the areas
in which these reactions occur must be cooled to keep the reactor stable.
In what way do nuclear reactors negatively affect ecosystems?
A.
Nuclear reactors increase thermal pollution
B.
Nuclear reactors increase air pollution
C.
Nuclear reactors add large amounts of solid waste to landfills.
D. Nuclear reactors produce greenhouse gases.
