Explanation:
The main job of a reactor is to house and control nuclear fission—a process where atoms split and release energy. ... Inside the reactor vessel, the fuel rods are immersed in water which acts as both a coolant and moderator. The moderator helps slow down the neutrons produced by fission to sustain the chain reaction.
