    I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. A beta particle that is emitted during nuclear decay is an electron. The high energy electron emitted in this reaction is called a beta particle and is represented by 0 - 1 e - - 1 0 e - in nuclear equations.

    Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
