Which consequence results when a reactor's poisoning increases?

💡 Explanation

Neutron "poisoning" increases neutron absorption; therefore, the reactor period becomes more negative due to the increased neutron flux decay governed by reactor kinetics rate constants rather than moderation, safety, or kinetic barriers.
