a: Carbon-14 ~
b: an old women
What:
"Everyone knows that there exist in nature "old women." These "grans," as they are technically referred to, live nearly forever, relentlessly refusing to give up the ghost, stretching their lifetimes out indefinitely. Carbon-14 is one of these, too. As nuclei go, it may be pretty famous, but it's famous because it's anomalous... it lives too long."
