a

Fusion of two nuclei with mass number lying in the range of 1<A<50 will release energy 

b

Fusion of two nuclei with mass number lying in the range of 50<A<100 will release energy 

c

Fission of a nucleus lying in the mass range of 100<A<200 will release energy when broken into equal fragments.

d

Fission of a nucleus lying in the mass range of 200<A<260 will release energy when broken into equal fragments

Detailed Solution

In fusion two or more lighter nuclei combined to make a comparatively heavier 
Nucleus. In fission a heavy nucleus breaks into two or more lighter nuclei. Further  energy will be released in a nuclear process if total binding energy increases. Hence  B,D are correct
