It depends on the type of decay. Alpha particles are helium nuclei, and contain 2 protons and 2 neutrons. Beta particles are just electrons. And gamma particles are electromagnetic waves with very high frequencies.
If it is related to Nuclear studies, then the answer would be fusion.

plants and animals die and then decay to release carbon compound in then
This is the alpha radioactive decay.
radioactive decay
Radioactive decay happens because unstable atomic nuclei release energy in the form of radiation to become more stable.
Thorium-230 is radioactive because it undergoes alpha decay, turning into radium-226 with the release of an alpha particle. This decay process is characteristic of radioactive elements.
The radioactive decay of americium 241 is by alpha disintegration; the disintegration of radioactive krypton isotopes is by beta particles emission.
Decay energy is the energy that has been freed during radioactive decay. When radioactive decay is ongoing it drops off some energy by means of discharging radiation.
One reason is that radioactive decay heats the earths interior
That statement is not entirely accurate. Radioactive decay can involve the emission of alpha particles, beta particles (electrons or positrons), and gamma rays. Electrons can be involved in certain types of radioactive decay processes.
The relationship between time and the decay of radioactive substances is shown in a graph of radioactive decay by demonstrating how the amount of radioactive material decreases over time. This decay occurs at a consistent rate, known as the half-life, which is the time it takes for half of the radioactive material to decay. The graph typically shows a gradual decrease in the amount of radioactive substance as time progresses, following an exponential decay curve.
