An atom is the smallest component of an element that still retains the properties of the element.

Some plant cells produce their own energy through photosynthesis which is the process by which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water react to make sugar and oxygen. Animal cells cannot produce their own energy and, instead, generate energy when mitochondria consume outside sugar and oxygen through aerobic respiration.

A proton is a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom. It carries a positive electric charge.

Food is mixed with gastric acid and pepsin in the stomach to help break down protein.
