उत्तर
Absorbing or controlling rods (such as boron or cadmium) are used in nuclear reactors to control the rate of the nuclear fission chain reaction. They absorb excess neutrons, preventing the reaction from accelerating uncontrollably and helping maintain safe operating temperatures to avoid accidents or meltdowns.
