Question

Which type of decay is a form of nuclear fission?(1 point) Responses gamma decay gamma decay beta-minus decay beta-minus decay beta-plus decay beta-plus decay alpha decay

Answer 1

The type of decay that is a form of nuclear fission is not listed among the options provided. Nuclear fission specifically refers to the splitting of a heavy nucleus into smaller nuclei, usually accompanied by the release of energy, and is distinct from the decays listed (gamma decay, beta-minus decay, beta-plus decay, and alpha decay).

However, if you're looking for a decay process related to fission, it's worth noting that certain types of radioactive decay can lead to fission, but the options given do not include a clear choice for fission itself. If you have to choose from the options given, none of them accurately represent fission.

If you require more information about these processes or further clarification, feel free to ask!
