Answer to Question 1

the number of protons in an atom

Answer to Question 2

Measurements of deuterium abundance indicate that the total amount of normal matter (which would include planets, brown dwarfs, and stars) cannot account for the total mass observed in galaxies. Observations of the mass distribution in colliding clusters shows that the dark matter passes right through the collision, while the normal matter gets caught up in the middle.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
