Which consequence results when deuteron binding energy decreases rapidly?

A)Increased rates of beta decay
B)Lower threshold for nuclear fusion
C)Higher radiative neutron capture cross-sections
D)Suppression of primary nucleosynthesis

💡 Explanation

Suppression of primary nucleosynthesis occurs, because the nuclear binding energy dictates light element formation paths in primordial conditions via mass-energy relations; therefore efficient deuterium fusion is impaired, rather than any acceleration in nuclear decay processes.
