A radioactive element is an element which is subject to spontaneous degeneration of its nucleus followed by the emission of alpha, beta and gamma particles. All elements with atomic numbers greater than 83 are radioactive.
The given phrases that describe radioactive elements are-
They have a consistent number of particles
- the particles are alpha, beta and gamma particles.
They have a half-life that determines their rate of decay.
Explanation for other options:
Not all elements occur in nature. Radioactive decay rates may not be constant as the decay happens when a radioactive substance emits a particle. It is not possible to predict exactly when a given atom of a substance will emit a particular particle. When the radioactive element release energy and particles, it decays.
Answer:
nucleotides
Explanation:
RNA and DNA are polymers made of long chains of nucleotides.

The nuclide represented as X is thorium and this is an alpha decay where an alpha particle is removed off.
<h3>What is nuclide?</h3>
A kind of atom or nucleus which is represented by a specific number of protons and neutrons.
The equation given represents an alpha decay. In an alpha decay, an alpha particle is removed off.
The atomic number of the parent nuclide is more than the daughter nuclide by two units and the mass number of the parent is more than that of the daughter nuclide by four units.
Thus, the x is thorium.
