Examples of decay are mold, corrosion, mildew, rot and something spoiled. These all derive from bacteria and fungus build up.

What are two types of radioactive decay?

The two types of radioactive decay are alpha and beta. Generally, in alpha decay the nucleus will lose 2 protons and 2 neutrons (it's a helium nucleus). Beta decay involves a neutron losing an electron and becoming a proton, so the atomic mass remains the same, but the atomic number increases by one since there is another proton.
