The process of fusion in stars combines Hydrogen atoms under immense heat and pressure. What are the resulting products of this process?

The star releases huge amounts of energy and heavier elements

The star loses huge amounts of mass and energy

The star releases a small amount of energy and the elements are radiated into space

The star explodes at the end of the fusion process, ending its life cycle
