Answer;

C. it is the part f the atom with the greatest mass

Explanation;

The nucleus of an atom is a small dense region at the center of an atom that contains protons and neutrons.

Almost all the mass of an atom is located in the nucleus, with a very small contribution from the electron shells.

The protons are positively charged which gives the nucleus a positive charge while the neutrons have no charge.
