According to the use that is given to it, the word element will refer to various issues. An element is the chemical or physical principle that is part of the composition of a body. Ancient Philosophy, specifically the Greeks, proposed the existence of four elements: air, water, earth and fire, which were supposed to be the fundamental and immediate principles for the constitution of bodies. For its part, Chinese culture added an element to these four and modified one of those proposed by the Greeks, water, earth, fire, wood and metal and conceives them as types of energy in constant interaction.
Secondly, An element is the integral part of something, the pieces that make up a structure (the keyboard is an integral element of a computer) or the components of a human group (the human elements of the police are essential when clarifying a case).
Likewise, the word element is used for account for an individual who is valued negatively or positively, as appropriate, at the request of the development of a joint action. For example, Laura turns out to be a fundamental element in the development of the company.
Too, at the behest of chemistry, we find the term element and it refers to the substance that cannot be decomposed into a simpler one by a chemical reaction.
On the other hand, the term is often used as a synonymous with means and resources.
