The particle that most resembles a proton could either be a neutron or an electron, and we'll have to explain that. The proton has about the same mass as the neutron, while the electron has only about 1/1836th the mass of a proton. The masses of the proton and neutron are similar. And both particles are found in the nucleus of atoms. The proton has the same electrical field strength as an electron (only of opposite polarity), while the neutron has no charge. The proton and electron have the same coulomb charge on them, except the sign of the charge. Both particles are carriers of fundamental electrical charges. In these two ways, the proton could be said to be like either the neutron or electron. And how the observer "looks" at them will determine which "likeness" he sees.
