Although not all, per se, the proton and neutron in the nucleus of the atom comprise the vast majority of the mass of an atom. The electron, though not massless, contributes a practically negligible mass to the atom by comparison.
The heaviest particle is the neutron. If we assign it a mass of 1.0 mass unit, then the proton is next with a mass of 0.9986 mass units, followed by the lowly electron with a mere 0.0005 mass units.

Protons and neutrons form the most of the atomic mass.
Average atomic mass is closest to its most commonisotope.
The atomic mass (ma) is the mass of a specific isotope, most often expressed in unified atomic mass units.[1] The atomic mass is the total mass of protons, neutrons and electrons in a single atom.[2]The atomic mass is sometimes incorrectly used as a synonym of relative atomic mass, average atomic mass and atomic weight; these differ subtly from the atomic mass. The atomic mass is defined as the mass of an atom, which can only be one isotope at a time and is not an abundance-weighted average as in the case of atomic weight. In the case of many elements that have one dominant isotope the actual numerical similarity/difference between the atomic mass of the most common isotope and the relative atomic mass or standard atomic weights can be very small such that it does not affect most bulk calculations-but such an error can be critical when considering individual atoms. For elements with more than one common isotope the difference even to the most common atomic mass can be half a mass unit or more (e.g. chlorine). The atomic mass of an uncommon isotope can differ from the relative atomic mass or standard atomic weight by several mass units.
Carbon-12 is the most common form of Carbon and therefore, counts for most of the atomic mass.

Yes, the atomic weight of the protons and neutrons in an atom (the 2 particles that make up the nucleus) is 1 for each of them. The other particle in an atom is an electron. The atomic weight of an electron is 1/1840 so it is often considered negligible.
