²²⁷₉₀ Th is the daughter nucleus (nuclide) produced when ac227 undergoes beta decay by emitting an electron.

A fast energetic electron or positron called a beta particle is released from an atomic nucleus during beta decay, which changes the original nuclide into an isobar of that nuclide. When a nucleus has too many protons or neutrons, beta decay happens when one of the protons or neutrons is converted into the other. A neutron decays into a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino in beta minus decay: n p + e - +.

During beta decay, an unstable nucleus undergoes the conversion of a neutron into a proton, so

¹₀ n  ---->  ₁¹p +   ₋₁⁰e    ( Z + 1 )

The complete reaction is as follows:

²²⁷₈₉AC -----> ²²⁷₉₀ Th  +  ₋₁⁰e

Therefore, the daughter nucleus is ²²⁷₉₀ Th.

Rna in cells differs from dna in that ___________________. select one:
irinina [24]
Hello! 

RNA in cells differs from DNA in that it is single-stranded and can fold up into a variety of structures.

RNA is the abbreviation for RiboNucleic Acid. It is a biological molecule that fulfills an important role by copying the information stored in the DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid) and transporting it to the different proteins by folding into different shapes. Its name come from a Ribose molecule that is present in this single-stranded molecule.  

Viruses don't have DNA, only RNA. They only replicate in the host's cells by copying their own RNA information. 

Have a nice day!
