It explodes because of the high Energy and because it has a lot of isotopes and and if you put some Einsteinium in it, it will destroy a planet the size of Jupiter

:-).

Seriously though, that is what a Fuel Cell is supposed to do - take Hydrogen and Oxygen, but to produce electricity in a controlled manner, not explode.

What is a hydrogen-oxygen cell?

uhh I think you mean a hydrogen oxygen atom as hydrogen and oxygen are not cells. it is a compound (a compound is an atom made up of two different atoms) made up of... guess what? Hydrogen and oxygen. In short though the correct term in the current situation i think you would be looking for the term hydrogen, oxygen fuel cell. it's a fuel cell in general. i would recommend further studying it.


How does the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen to produce energy in a fuel cell differ from their interaction during the direct combustion of hydrogen and oxygen?

It is much easier to control the hydrogen and oxygen during direct combustion than during their reaction in a fuel cell.
