Neutron

Real World Example

Imagine trying to balance a seesaw with two friends of equal weight sitting on either end. The seesaw, much like an atom's nucleus, requires balance and stability, which is maintained by a neutral element in the middle—this is where the neutron comes in. Just as the person sitting in the center of the seesaw doesn't add weight to either side but provides necessary support for balance, the neutron is an uncharged particle that helps stabilize the nucleus without altering its electrical charge.
