उत्तर

Nuclear fuels produce pollution by heat, end products and wastes in coolants.

Explanation:

Nuclear fuels produce pollution in several ways:

  • Heat: Nuclear reactors generate heat during energy production, which can contribute to thermal pollution in nearby water bodies.

  • Wastes in coolants: The coolants used in nuclear reactors can carry radioactive materials, leading to contamination.

  • End products: The process of nuclear fission produces radioactive waste that can remain hazardous for thousands of years, contributing to long-term pollution.

Thus, all these factors are sources of pollution in nuclear energy production.
