Which consequence occurs following inadequate control rod immersion during nuclear reactor SCRAM?

💡 Explanation

Insufficient control rod depth hinders neutron absorption; the reduced removal of reaction byproducts results in increased average nuclear binding energy per nucleon because fusion reactions continue, therefore more stable isotopes emerge, rather than reaction termination.
