Answer 1

The correct response is: The nucleus with the largest mass will split into two or more relatively large pieces.

In nuclear fission, a heavy nucleus splits into two or more smaller nuclei, along with the release of energy and typically some neutrons. This process does not involve the combination of nuclei or the production of larger mass numbers.
