Radioactive nuclei that are injected into a patient collect at certain sites within their body,undergoing radioactive decay and emitting electromagnetic radiation. These radiations can then be recorded by a detector. This procedure provides an important diagnostic tool called:

Consider a radioactive nucleus $A$ which decays to a stable nucleus $C$ through the following sequence: $A \to B \to C$. Here $B$ is an intermediate nucleus which is also radioactive. Considering that there are $N_0$ atoms of $A$ initially,plot the graph showing the variation of the number of atoms of $A$ and $B$ versus time.

$U^{238}$ decays into $Th^{234}$ by the emission of an $\alpha$-particle. There follows a chain of further radioactive decays,either by $\alpha$-decay or by $\beta$-decay. Eventually,a stable nuclide is reached,and after that,no further radioactive decay is possible. Which of the following stable nuclides is the end product of the $U^{238}$ radioactive decay chain?
