The amount of an isotope of an element that exists in nature, usually expressed as a percentage of the total amount of all isotopes of the element.
All decay is bacterial (except when the term is used metaphorically, as in social decay).
When the element is stable. (apex)
Half-life (in units of time).Half-Life is the rate of radioactive decay, measured in time. The half life gives the time it take for half of the radioactive atoms in a system to decay. Fore example, if you have 10 grams of carbon-14, it will take 5730 years for half of it to decay, giving you 5 grams. In another 5730 years, you'll have 2.5 grams left, etc...Isotopes decay at an exponential rate. A half-life is the time that half of the population of an isotope will decay. The measure is a statistical probability and is more accurate when a large population is observed. The term half-life is applied to describe a property of a given isotope (i.e. the half-life of Carbon 14 is 5730).half life
The term ruins is often used to describe the remains of man-made architecture. Often times the term is used after a long period of decay in which the place or structure is considered unlivable due to decay or natural destruction such as earthquakes.
The atom that results from nuclear decay is called the daughter atom. The element of the daughter atom would be called the daughter element. The atom that decayed is called the parent.

The amount of an isotope of an element that exists in nature, usually expressed as a percentage of the total amount of all isotopes of the element.
All decay is bacterial (except when the term is used metaphorically, as in social decay).
The term that means death and decay of soft tissue is "necrosis".

Niels Bohr coined the term "element."
The term is "radioactive decay".
A half-life is the time it takes for half of the substance to decay, becoming something else. You can find a list of half-lives in the Wikipedia article "List_of_isotopes_by_half-life".
Metal is not an element. It is a term used to classify an element, but it is not an element.
"The radioactive decay of certain unstable isotopes is used to calculate the age of objects."
