No. Atoms consis of protons, electrons and neutrons which consist of quarks and whole bunch of subatomic particles.

ANSWER: The Greek word for indivisible is atom. It is rich with irony and even somewhat predictable that by naming something that small indivisible, it was only a matter of time before someone rose to the challenge.

Atoms can be divided, as in nuclear fission . . . but you said atom particles. Some of these little dudes can be split into other, high-energy particles.

that's right but that doesn't answer the question!!!!! the answer is yes atom particles are invisible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is right . . . read the question again. It says INDIVISIBLE, not invisable!

When atoms were first discovered it was believed that they were, but now we know that they are not. Atoms contain sub-atomic particles called electrons, protons and neutrons and these sub-atomic particles are also made up of other smaller particles. It is not yet known what the smallest particle is because all of the particles that have been found can be divided into smaller particles.

They aren't, it was simply a theory passed forward by old Greek philosophers about how the world was put together.

Because they can be split into the smaller particles that make them.

Is an atom indivisible elaborate your answer?

No. Atoms are now considered to consist of several minor particles. And atoms dividing is what provides the energy for nuclear power plants. So atoms are NOT indivisible. They ARE divisible.
