The formation of the elements is known as ____
A
NUCLEOTIDES
B
NUCLEAR FISSION
C
SYNTHOGENESIS
D
NUCLEOSYNTHESIS
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Nucleosynthesis is the creation of new atomic nuclei, the centers of atoms that are made up of protons and neutrons. Nucleosynthesis first occurred within a few minutes of the Big Bang. At that time, a quark-gluon plasma, a soup of particles known as quarks and gluons, condensed into protons and neutrons.

Detailed explanation-2: -In physical cosmology, Big Bang nucleosynthesis (abbreviated BBN, also known as primordial nucleosynthesis) is the production of nuclei other than those of the lightest isotope of hydrogen (hydrogen-1, 1H, having a single proton as a nucleus) during the early phases of the Universe.

Detailed explanation-3: -In astronomy – and astrophysics and cosmology – there are two main kinds of nucleosynthesis, Big Bang nucleosynthesis (BBN), and stellar nucleosynthesis. In the amazingly successful set of theories which are popularly called the Big Bang theory, the early universe was very dense, and very hot.

Detailed explanation-4: -Big bang nucleosynthesis is the process of light element formation. The light elements that formed after the big bang were helium, deuterium, and trace amounts of lithium and beryllium. Deuterium, helium-3, helium-4, and lithium-7 were stable.
