It is currently not confirmed whether electrons and quarks are actually made up of anything smaller - rishon or otherwise, so this is all quite hypothetical.

No. Scientists have discovered sub-atomic particles such as quarks.


The smallest part of an element that act like an element?

The atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains it's characteristics. Sub-atomic particles such as protons, neutrons and electrons form the atom and it is the amount of each of these sub-atomic particles that make the element that element.


What are quarks and electrons made up of?

There is no evidence of a smaller particle than the quarks and electrons and other fundamental particles, but there is a theory of smaller particles called "rishons". The theory states that there are T, V, t, and v rishons. The T and t rishons are antoparticles, the T's having an electric charge of +1/3, and the t's having -1/3. The v and V are antiparticles, but they are both neutral. (Again, this is only theory.)

Who theoretically proposed sub atomic particle Rishon?

Jonah Lehrer proposed the idea of subatomic particles called Rishons in 2002, suggesting they could explain the properties of quarks and leptons. However, this hypothesis has not been widely accepted in the scientific community.

What is the name of the smallest paricle of an element that has the properties of that element?

An atom is the smallest particle of an element that has the properties of that element. The atom consists of a certain amount of electrons, protons and usually neutrons. The amount of each of these sub-atomic particles is what makes an element. No Sub-Atomic Particles have any characterisitics of an element. It is the collective arrangement of electrons and protons (and usually neutrons) which gives an element its characteristics. An atom is the smallest particle that has elemental characteristics.
