Which risk increases when controlled chain fission reactions accelerate?

A)Reduced moderator effectiveness occurs
B)Fuel cladding breach occurs
C)Neutron flux instability occurs
D)Loss of coolant accident starts

💡 Explanation

Fuel cladding breach risk increases because increased energy causes a rapid rise in fuel temperature, therefore exceeding material limits during uncontrolled thermal expansion, rather than changes in neutron moderation which would also affect reaction rate.
