CANDU type nuclear reactor using natural uranium as fuel is the extensively used nuclear reactor because of the fact that the
Specific fuel consumption is very low due to the use of heavy water
Fuel cost is much lower than that used in pressurised water or boiling water reactor
Heavy water is used both as coolant as well as moderator
Both 'b' & 'c'
