Conservation genetics uses a combination of ecology, molecular biology, population genetics, mathematical modeling, and evolutionary taxonomy (the study of family relationships). It is both a basic and an applied science. First, scientists must understand the genetic relationships among the organisms they're studying.
Compare subatomic particles by Particle type: Î¿ the atom is composed of subatomic particles (protons, neutrons, and electrons) that affect the properties of an atom. Particle mass: Î¿ protons and neutrons have about the same mass.ompare subatomic particles by Particle type: Î¿ the atom is composed of subatomic particles (protons, neutrons, and electrons) that affect the properties of an atom.

The number of subatomic particles, protons, neutrons, and electrons, are unique to each atom. The table below summarizes characteristics of each subatomic particle. There is a shorthand notation to write an element and signify the # of subatomic particles it contains.
