What are the Nuclear Fission reactions that occur in the Sun? Could you explain them in detail?
Could you also tell where do the Products come from?

Do you mean nuclear fusion reactions on the sun because fusion reactions are the main source of energy of the sun. Fission reactions do occur but in smaller numbers.
Nuclear fusion is combining of smaller nuclei to form heavier atoms and releasing large amount of energy in the process.Nuclear reaction on the sun are of hydrogen joining together ("fusing") to make atoms of helium, releasing huge amounts of energy in the process. The Sun's nuclear fusion also produces the solar energy that streams out across 150 million km of space sustaining pretty much all the life present on Earth.

Ans..Inside the Sun, this process begins with protons (which is simply a lone hydrogen nucleus) and through a series of steps, these protons fuse together and are turned into helium. This fusion process occurs inside the core of the Sun, and the transformation results in a release of energy that keeps the sun hot.
Could you also tell where do the Products come from?
Ans..Fission products are produced in nuclear weapon explosions, with the amount depending on the type of weapon. The largest source of fission products is from nuclear reactors. In current nuclear power reactors, about 3% of the uranium in the fuel is converted into fission products as a by-product of energy generation.
