What are the specialized smaller parts of the cell called?

They are called protons, neutrons and electrons


Makes up protons neutrons and electrons?

Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus of an atom, while electrons orbit around the nucleus. Protons are positively charged, neutrons are neutral, and electrons are negatively charged. Together, these particles determine the chemical and physical properties of an element.


Which is the smallest protons atoms electrons neutrons or cells?

protons and neutrons are usually the same size and are inside an atom so the atom is obviously bigger and an atom is inside a cell so a cell is biggest so therefore ELECTRONS ARE SMALLEST


What two parts of an atom is located in the nucleus?

Protons and neutrons are in the nucleus, and electrons are in the cloud that surrounds it.


Is the nucleus a part of both an atom and a cell or just one?

Both. The nucleus of a cell is its "brain" for lack of a better term. The nucleus of an atom is where the protons and neutrons are found, and is the region that the electrons orbit.


Where can electrons and neutrons found?

inside the nucleus


Is there one protons and nucleus in atom?

Yes, all atoms have a nucleus! The Nucleus is the part of the atom which holds the Protons and Neutrons, the Electrons orbit the "atomic nucleus". The atomic nucleus is different to the nucleus of a cell, which holds genetic information and allows the cell to operate. Answer above provided by Runehally16.


What does the nucleus do for the cell?

In Biology: the nucleus and the nucleolus are the components of the cell that act as the brain. They contain the genetic information that allows the cell to perform the functions of life. In Chemistry: the nucleus of the atom is the small center that contains only protons and neutrons. The protons are positively charged and the neutrons are neutral. It is the protons and neutrons that provide most of the mass to the atom; since the electrons are very light to allow them the ability to move from one compound to the next.


Does a cell have particles?

Of course, all matter (as far as we know) is made up of molecules and atoms which in turn is made of protons, neutrons, electrons. Even protons and neutrons are made of quarks. Cells are combinations of various elements and the six basic ones are carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, phosphorus and calcium. These elements are made up of atoms which are made from protons, neutrons and electrons,


What are the names of 2 nucleons?

The particles found in the nucleus are collectively called nucleons. Nucleons are protons and neutrons.


What is contained inside the nucleus of an atom?

The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons, which are called nucleons. Protons have a positive charge, while neutrons have no charge. Electrons, which have a negative charge, orbit around the nucleus in electron clouds.


Describe the nucleus of an atom?

The nucleus is an organelle, enclosed within the cell that stores the cell's DNA (genes and chromosomes) and coordinates the cell's activities. The nucleus is the control center for the cell.
