isotopes of a given element differ in the number of neutrons they have.
An element is a composition of many atoms. Thus you can hold NaCl (salt) in your hand. You can't hold the atoms it makes up.
how does one protein differ from another protein?
The difference is the number of neutrons contained in the atom's nucleus
They are called isotopes and the difference between different isotopes of one type of element is the amount of neutrons each have.
isotopes of a given element differ in the number of neutrons they have.
Atoms of the same element may differ from one another by having differing numbers of Neutrons in their centres.
By number of protons/electrons.
Isotopes of one particular element (atom) only differ in mass and stability (decay), not in chemical properties.
Early Filipino ancestors differed from each other in terms of their languages, beliefs, traditions, and social structures. They belonged to different ethnic groups with distinct customs and practices based on their geographical location and interactions with neighboring tribes. These differences contributed to the rich cultural diversity of the Philippines.

Atoms of the same element differ in the number of neutrons in their nuclei. All atoms of a given element have the same number of protons, of course. The number of protons in a nucleus determines which element the atom is. But the number of neutrons can vary, and these different "versions" of a given element are called isotopes of that element. See the related question, which is linked below.

They differ in their number of neutrons.Atoms of all isotopes of carbon contain 6 protons and 6 electrons.Carbon-12 is the most common isotope.Isotopes of an element differ because each isotope has a different neutrons, but the same amount of protons.Example: H-1H-2H-1 has 1 neutron, 1 proton, and 1 electronH-2 ,however, has 2 neutrons, 1 proton, and 1 electron.
