Answer:
They reduce the bond angle to be slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle, approximately 104.45 degrees.
Explanation:
The unshared pair of electrons or lone pair electrons in order to have the minimum repulsion possible with each other pushes the other bonding pairs closer together making the bond angle smaller or bent.
The bond angle is slightly lower than the tetrahedral bond angle of 108 degrees, leaving the water molecule with a bent molecular geometry.

Explanation:
The emission of a beta particle is the result of the rearrangement of the unstable nucleus of the radioactive atom in order to acquire stability. For that, a phenomenon occurs in the nucleus, in which a neutron decomposes giving rise to three new particles: a proton, an electron (β particle), and a neutrino. The antineutrino and electron are emitted. The proton, however, remains in the nucleus.
The symbol is used to represent beta particles.
Answer: b. Beta
Protons and neutrons are in the center of the atom, making up the nucleus. The charge on the proton and electron are exactly the same size but opposite. Neutrons have no charge.
