Which risk increases following tritium beta decay in fusion reactor breeding blankets?

💡 Explanation

Helium-3 production accelerates because beta decay converts tritium to helium-3, increasing its partial pressure. Higher pressure stresses the system; therefore avoiding option B, because it is tritium decay that produces helium-3, rather than alpha emission.
