Answer:

True

Explanation: Yes. Nuclear transmutation is the conversion of one chemical element or an isotope into another. Because any element (isotope) is defined by its number of protons (and neutrons) in its atoms, i.e. in the atomic nucleus, nuclear transmutation occurs in any process where this number is changed.
