Which risk increases when a magnetic confinement fusion reactor experiences resistive heating?

💡 Explanation

Resistive heating elevates plasma temperature unevenly causing magnetohydrodynamic instabilities; these then lead to rapid and destructive plasma disruptions because current concentrates, therefore instability increases, rather than a stable reaction.
