Final answer:

Atoms are the smallest units of elements and contain the same number of protons within the same element.


Explanation:

An atom is the smallest unit of a chemical element, retaining all its properties. This means all atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. Elements are distinguished by the number of protons in their nuclei, not neutrons. Elements are made up of just one type of atom, not several different types.
