The number of protons in the nucleus affects the elemental identity of an atom, whereas the number of neutrons does not affect which element an atom belongs to.
If that substance is an element, the smallest part is the atom which, if broken down further into atomic particles, loses its identity.
No, prokaryotic and eukartyotic are part of an organism. Prokaryotic organisms are more simple celled organisms without a nucleaus. Eukaryotic organisms are more complex organisms with a nucleaus in each cell. Hope that sort of answered your question:)
retains the chemical identity of that element.
atom is the smallest part of element
"element" is a very confusing word for what you are asking. But what I think you are asking is what part of an atom does not change with an isotope. I'll answer that question. An isotope of an atom is a variation fo the element in which the atom has a different number of neutrons. However, the number of protons can never change in a single element. So no matter how many atoms of a certain element are gathered, no matter how many different isotopes there are, they all have the exact same number of protons.
The nucleaus
The answer is nucleus :)

The atomic number defines an atom's identity, i.e. element. A group of atoms contatining the same number of protons in their nuclei belong to the same element even if they can have different numbers of neutrons or electrons associated with them. If two atoms have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons, they are called isotopes. If an atom has less or more electrons than its number of protons, it is known as an ion. In certain instances during radioactive decay, the number of protons in an atom's nucleus can actually change. This results in a transmutation (change of one element to another).
mrs.newman is hard huh?
The sugar and phosphate group of nucleotides never change. There are four possible nitrogenous bases and thus it is the only part of nucleotides that can change.
No. Living things can only take part in chemical reactions using various forms of energy, and these only change the way chemical elements are bonded together, not the elements themselves.
what is the smallest part of an element
No, you cannot change your birthday. It is part of your identity and no amount of legal documents will change that. If your name doesn't match the birthdate, you will lose access to benefits of all sorts.
