The correct response is:
It becomes more stable by emitting energy and particles.
In gamma decay, the nucleus releases gamma radiation (high-energy photons), which decreases its energy state, leading to a more stable configuration.
An unstable nucleus undergoes gamma decay. How does the nucleus change?(1 point)
