The decay mode of cesium-137 is beta decay. This means that the cesium-137 decays into a beta particle and a nuclide with the same mass number, but with a charge number that is 1 more than that of cesium.

Therefore, this means Cs-137 decays into an electron and Barium-137, meaning the answer is choice 1.
