Summary Introduction

To determine: The reason why the biological half-life is shorter than the physical half-life of a radioisotope.

Introduction:

The biological half-life of a radioisotope can be defined as the half-life of a radioisotope taken to disappear from the body. Whereas, the physical half-life is the time required for half of its atoms to decay to a stable state.
