Pearson bio isotopes mistake?

Hi, this confused me quite a bit. carbon-14 “loses a proton” to become nitrogen? doesn’t it technically gain one, since one of it’s neutrons becomes a proton or something?

Woah they did!? Lol
Well, in any case, thank you for confirming my concern. I’m glad i could tell something was wrong here but i fear there could be another mistake that might go under the radar next time and cause me to learn an incorrect piece of information because of it. Let’s hope that doesn’t happen i guess :skull::joy:
