What are two ways that transmutation can occurs?

Does transmutation occur in nuclear fission?
Nuclear fission splits an atom of one element into two atoms of two different elements. This is not usually called transmutation. However, fission is accompanied by subsequent steps, which usually include transmutation.
What is the multiplication principle?
If one event can occur in "m" ways and a second can occur independently of the first in "n" ways, then the two events can occur in "mn" ways.
Transmutation reactions can occur when the?
In nuclear science, transmutation is where one chemical element or isotope is converted into another. It occurs when materials decay, or it can be caused by nuclear reaction.
Does transmutation occur in gamma decay?
No, transmutation does not occur in gamma decay. Gamma decay is a type of radioactive decay where a nucleus releases a gamma ray photon to reach a more stable state, but the identity of the nucleus remains the same. Transmutation involves the change of one element into another through various nuclear reactions.
Can transmutation reactions occur when the neutrons of various elements are bombarded by alpha particles?
yes
Transmutation does not occur in which of these nuclear processes?
Transmutation does not occur in nuclear fission, where atomic nuclei are split into smaller fragments. Transmutation involves changing the identity of an atomic nucleus by altering the number of protons and neutrons it contains, which occurs in nuclear fusion reactions and radioactive decay processes.
Define counting principle?
If one event can occur in m ways, and for each of these a second event can occur in n ways, then the number of ways that the two evens can occur together is m x n. Can be extended to three or more events.
Change of one element into another is called what?
transmutation, neutrons
How is rusting and transmutation related?
Rusting is a specific type of oxidation reaction that occurs when iron reacts with oxygen in the presence of water to form iron oxide. Transmutation, on the other hand, is the process of changing one element into another through nuclear reactions. While both rusting and transmutation involve chemical or atomic changes, they occur through different mechanisms and at different scales.
How would you describe the two ways cumulative risks occur?
Occur by the increase of effect of one risk or of each added risk
Name two ways that nuclear fission is currently being used?
first it occur in nature and second it occur in power plant
