Which outcome regarding binding energy occurs during nuclear fusion within main-sequence stars?

💡 Explanation

Fusion reactions create heavier nuclei; therefore, the average binding energy per nucleon generally increases. This increase releases energy equal to mass deficit via Einstein's mass-energy equivalence rather than particles absorbing energy by reduced binding.
