Which consequence occurs when the average binding energy per nucleon plateaus at iron-56?

💡 Explanation

Fusion beyond iron-56 requires energy input due to decreasing binding energy; therefore, energy-releasing fusion stops, because overcoming the reduced binding energy causes endothermic reaction, rather than exothermic options like continued fusion.
