Which consequence results when metastable Technetium-99m isomers decay?

💡 Explanation

The metastable state decays via isomeric transition releasing energy as a gamma photon, because this process allows the nucleus to reach a lower energy state. Therefore, gamma photons are emitted rather than fission, neutron or alpha particles which require significantly different decay processes.
