Out of the following, which one is not emitted by a natural radioactive substance?

Statement-$1$: $A$ nucleus having energy $E_{1}$ decays by $\beta^{-}$ emission to a daughter nucleus having energy $E_{2}$,but the $\beta^{-}$ rays are emitted with a continuous energy spectrum having an end-point energy $E_{1} - E_{2}$.
Statement-$2$: To conserve energy and momentum in $\beta$ decay,at least three particles must take part in the transformation.
