When most radioactive atoms “spontaneously” decay to a more stable form the “additional” energy is converted to radiation with the emission of radioactive particles.
<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>
Radioactivity is the spontaneous decay of the nucleus of an atom with the emission of radiation and nuclear particles.
Elements that spontaneously decay are called radioactive elements.
When these radioactive elements decay, they form more stable isotopes or elements.
The spontaneous decay of atoms of radioactive elements is in order for the nucleus of the atom to become stable and non-radioactive.

In eukaryotic cells the citric acid cycle takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria.
Rust is iron oxide, the corrosion product of iron when exposed to the oxygen in the air. Tin is not iron, so you cannot produce iron oxide from the corrosion of tin. Because the layer of tin on the surface of the steel prevents atmospheric oxygen and moisture from contacting the steel.
The building blocks of protein are amino acids.
Amino acids are a class of organic compounds that contain at least one amino group, -NH2, and carboxyl group, -COOH.
Alpha amino acids , RCH(NH2)COOH, are the building blocks from which proteins are constructed.
The NH group of one amino acid and the COOH group of the other amino acid are joined together and a peptide bond -CONH- is formed between the two amino acids and the product is called a dipeptide.
