Alpha particle is nothing but the He nucleus. He nucleus has two protons and two neturons. So 4 nucleons.

As alpha comes out of the parent nucleus, then the by product ie daughter nucleus would have 2 protons less and 4 nucleons less.

So 88Ra226 after emitting one alpha particle gets changed into 86 Rn 222. Rn is Radon.

So 88Ra226 ----------> 86 Rn 222 + 2 He 4

Bismuth-214 decays by alpha decay only 0.0211% of the time. When it does, it produces Thallium-210.

99.979% of the time, it decays by beta- decay to polonium-214.

Until quite recently, Bi-209 was regarded as a stable isotope. It has recently ben found that it is not stable, undergoing alpha decay to Tl-205. The rate is extremely slow, corresponding to a half-life of 1.9×1019 years.

When iron 59 undergoes beta decay what is the results?

The daughter product in this nuclear process will be cobalt-59, which is stable. One neutron becomes a proton and an electron. The proton remains, adding 1 to the nuclide's atomic number; the electron is emitted as a beta particle.
