Yes. An atom is made up of protons and neutrons(in the nucleus) and electrons (that go around the nucleus). Both protons and neutrons, in turn, are made up of quarks.
We have no names for particles smaller than quarks if any exist. Quarks cannot exist alone (they are always in triplets of different "flavors") whereas electrons do have solitary existence.

An Atom. It's the world's smallest particles of matter, atom's is known to be 20 times smaller than an average coffee bean.
What does it mean when a subatomic particle is in the atom?
Basically, atoms are made up of subatomic particles. Subatomic, sub- meaning smaller that, so subatomic particles means "a particle smaller than an atom". So It means that it is a particle within the atom.
Why are protons neutrons electrons called subatomic particles?
