Which decay product directly results from beta-minus decay?

💡 Explanation

Beta-minus decay converts a neutron into a proton via Weak Interaction, therefore increasing the proton count and emitting an electron and antineutrino. This yields an isotope of higher atomic number because a neutron becomes a proton rather than losing nucleons.
