It's the number of protons.
The table of elements organizes the elements by their number of protons/the atomic number as the number of protons of an element is fixed, unlike the number of electrons and neutrons.

The atomic number of an atom is determined by the number of protons present in the atom that is the atomic number and number of protons are same for an atom. It is unique for every atom.

Atomic mass: It is nearly equals to the sum of mass of subatomic particles present in the atom that is sum of proton and neutron.

Number of neutrons: in an atom, the number of neutrons are always equal to the number of protons. If the number of neutrons are different for a number of proton then it is said be an isotope of that atom.

Protons plus neutrons: Sum of number of protons and number of neutrons is said to be the mass number of that atom.

Hence, the atomic number is the number of protons.

I would say this would be because because South America and Africa used to be together in Gondwanaland millions of years ago and then apparently drifted apart as Wegener thought and then with the advent of plate tectonics it became apparent that the mid-Atlantic ridge runs between them and due to spreading along it Africa and S America got separated.</span>
