An n-dimensional polytope is bounded by a number of (n − 1)-dimensional facets. They can also be called as "elements" of a polytope.

Subfacets include: vertices, edges, faces, cells, etc...

Vertex[]

Edge

A vertex is a zero-dimensional subfacet. Two or more vertices create an edge.

Edge[]

An edge is a one-dimensional subfacet. Two or more edges meet at a vertex. A face is made up of three or more edges.

Face[]

A face is a two-dimensional subfacet. Two or more faces meet at an edge.

Cell[]

A cell is a three-dimensional subfacet. Two or more cells meet at a face. A teron is made up of five or more cells.
