I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option 2. Small amounts of matter are converted into
large amounts of energy occurs in both fusion and fission reactions. They are nuclear reactions where a change in the identity or characteristics of an atomic nucleus results when it is bombarded with an energetic particle, as in fission, fusion, or radioactive decay.

Fusion and fission are nuclear reactions that convert a small amount of matter into a large amount of energy.

The fusion reaction is the reaction in which the molecules combine and form energy. The fission reaction is the decomposition nuclear reaction where the matter is degraded into a small entity and the energy is released.

The energy is not converted into matter in both reactions. There is no splitting or combination of nuclei in both reactions.

Thus, the small amount of matter is converted into a large amount of energy is correct.
