Maeve Kidd · Answer 1

The nucleus

Explanation:

Electrons are so light that their contribution to the atomic mass of the atom is minimal and isn't considered in many situations.

Nathalie Zavala · Answer 2

In the nuclear atom, the protons and neutrons, which comprise nearly all of the mass of the atom, are located in the nucleus at the center of the atom. The electrons are distributed around the nucleus and occupy most of the volume of the atom.
