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.

fomenos
<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

If threads are layered from top to bottom brown green red. Green layer will come into focus first if you are using the microscope properly. Green colour has wavelength of 500-565 nm and frequency of 530-606 THz approximately. Due its properties it will come into focus first if you are using the microscope. If anything is covered by brown, red and green, it will appear only green color first by microscope due to its specific characteristics. The visibility of colors depend on the properties which it has.
