Proton and neutron combine which gives
A
nucleus
B
nuclei
C
nucleon
D
none of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A proton and a neutron combine to give a deuterium nucleus.

Detailed explanation-2: -After the universe cooled slightly, the neutrons fused with protons to make nuclei of deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen. Deuterium nuclei then combined to make helium. Further reactions between protons, neutrons, and different isotopes of helium produced lithium.

Detailed explanation-3: -Out of the other atomic terms one of the terms is nucleons it is composed of subatomic particles in the nucleus of an atom that is protons and neutrons. Therefore nucleons are the sum of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus.

Detailed explanation-4: -How the Strong Force Works. Protons and neutrons are made up of smaller subatomic particles. When protons or neutrons get close enough to each other, they exchange particles (mesons), binding them together. Once they are bound, it takes considerable energy to break them apart.

Detailed explanation-5: -Nucleons are composite particles composed of three quarks bound together by the strong interaction. The atomic nucleus holds the nucleons with a strong force.
