Best Answer

Quarks are tiny parts of an atom to an extent.

Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons a neutrons are made up of three quarks each. Electrons, however, are not made of quarks.

What did the greeks believe about atoms?

The word Atom comes from the Greek a-tomos meaning uncuttable. Name by Democritus, who belived that matter is not continuous but made of tiny, indivisible grains of material, The Atom. We now know that this is not true as atoms are constructed from various ratios of protons & neutrons (which in turn as made up of quarks), and electrons.


Atoms are made up of tiny particles such as protons neutrons electrons which are known as what particles?

Protons and neutrons form the nucleus of an atom while electrons form the shell of an atom. The electrons in the shell of the atom exist in distinct layers. Those in the outer layer take part in chemical reactions and are involved in electricity. Electrons are also basic particles called leptons. Protons and Neutrons are not basic particles but are composite particles called haldrons. They consist of three basic particles called quarks. Quarks are a basic particle called fermions.
