1) Radioactive decay is the spontaneous decomposition of the unstable nucleus of an atom.

2) The emission of a particle or a photon.

For example, alpha decay is radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle (helium nucleus).

3) The result is usually more stable element with smaller atomic number.

For example, in alpha decay atom transforms into an atom with an atomic number that is reduced by two and mass number that is reduced by four.

For example nuclear fission is radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts and huge amount of energy is released.

“Fire and water are not more heterogeneous than the different colonies in North America.” Explain the meaning of this phrase.
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The phrase implies a comparison between two natural materials as different as water and fire, referring to the fact that this difference is similar to the differences between the different British colonies in America.

Thus, for example, the New England colonies were clearly influenced by Puritanism and political conservatism, while others such as Maryland had a clear Catholic influence and a more open mind regarding other religions, cultures and nationalities. Also, while in the north some manufactured goods such as ships were produced, in the south of the country the main industry was agriculture.

Murrr4er [49]
I would have to say D " A phantom ship , with each mast and spar/ Across the moon like a prison bar,/ And a huge black hulk, that was magnified / By its own reflection in the tide. 
It reminds me of her poem of when she came from Africa to America.
