Answer:
The answer is D. gamma rays
Explanation:
A radioactive atom can have three different types of emission:
alpha particles (α) = they have a mass of 4 amu and they have a very low penetrating power.
Beta particles (β) = they have 5x amu and they have an intermediate penetrating power
Gamma rays (γ) = they are not particles basically just energy so its mass is ≈ 0 and its penetrating power is higher
For this reason Gamma emissions (γ) has the smallest mass value.
