C-14 ##->## N-14 + ##beta^-##
The carbon-14 atoms undergo beta-minus decay (electron emission) and produce a beta particle and a nitrogen-14 atom.
A neutron in the atom undergoes decay and will produce a proton electron (the beta particle ) and an electron antineutrino.
Here’s a video to give more explanation…

Hope this helps!
