    Yes

    Explanation:

    Two isotopes of hydrogen, tritium and protium, undergo nuclear fusion in the sun to give helium, neutrons and a tremendous amount of energy. This reaction occurs at the very high temperature found in the sun and yields tremendous amount of energy.

    Given the high temperature at which the said fusion reaction occurs, it is safe to say that hydrogen and helium act as a furnace at the core of the sun.
