There's no actual evidence that quarks are not fundamental particles, so as far as we know there's nothing inside them, they just are. There are a couple of half-baked theories that quarks are actually made of "strings" or "preons" (on the scale from "crackpot" to "fully validated scientific theory", strings are somewhat more "baked" than preons are), but there's no real experimental evidence for it; we're pretty much still at the level of some guy in ancient Greece saying "yeah, dude, everything is made of atoms." Except in ancient Greek, of course.

∙ 12y agoAlthough there are some theories, it is not confirmed that quarks are made up of smaller particles - nor is there any consensus that this is even likely,but scientist predict that there are strings inside. Back in the 1970's, physicists Salam and Pati proposed the first explicit model of
quark substructure. They mapped out a provisional theory in which quarks are composed
of smaller particles they named "preons".

Multiple quarks together make different particles. The two most familiar are probably the proton (made of two up quarks and a down quark), and the neutron (two down quarks and an up quark). There are other particles made up of quarks, or a combination of a quark and anti-quark. See the related links for lists.
Quarks make up protons and neutrons, which are the building blocks of atomic nuclei in atoms. Quarks are fundamental particles that are held together by the strong nuclear force.

Two up quarks and one down quark make up which of the following particles?
Two up quarks and one down quark make up a proton.
What is an anti-down quark?
An anti-down quark is the antimatter counterpart of a down quark, one of the elementary particles that make up protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus. It has opposite electric charge to a down quark and can combine with other quarks to form antimatter particles.
What are neutral pions made of?
Neutral pions are composed of a quark-antiquark pair, specifically an up quark and an anti-up quark or a down quark and an anti-down quark. They are the lightest mesons and are unstable, decaying rapidly into two photons.
What is antiquarks?
Antiquarks are the antiparticles of quarks, which are fundamental particles that make up protons and neutrons. Antiquarks have the same mass as their corresponding quarks but opposite electric charge and other quantum properties. When a quark and an antiquark combine, they form mesons, which are a type of particle.
Is quark bigger or neutron?
Neutron is bigger than a quark. A neutron is a composite particle made up of three quarks, while a quark is a fundamental particle that makes up protons and neutrons.
Two up quarks and one down quark make up which of the following particles?
Two up quarks and one down quark make up a proton.
What is an anti-down quark?
An anti-down quark is the antimatter counterpart of a down quark, one of the elementary particles that make up protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus. It has opposite electric charge to a down quark and can combine with other quarks to form antimatter particles.
What is is the Relationship between quark and subatomic particle?
A quark is a kind of subatomic particle, and 3 quarks makes up another subatomic particle (a baryon). A quark and an anti-quark make up another kind of sub-atomic particle, (a meson).
What are neutral pions made of?
Neutral pions are composed of a quark-antiquark pair, specifically an up quark and an anti-up quark or a down quark and an anti-down quark. They are the lightest mesons and are unstable, decaying rapidly into two photons.
What is is made up of smaller protons and neutrons?
An atom is made up of smaller protons and neutrons located in the nucleus, surrounded by electrons in orbitals. Proteins and neutrons have positive charges and reside in the nucleus while electrons have negative charges and orbit the nucleus in specific energy levels.
What sound does a duck physicist make?
Quark quark.
What are 3 particle's of the atom?
The up quark, the down quark, and the electron. Two up quarks and a down quark form a proton, and two down quarks and an up quark form a neutron.
What can a quark do?
a quark is a fundamental constituent of matter. It is what makes up protons and neutrons and there is nothing smaller than them. They cannot DO anything alone, merely make up other things
The particle that may make up both protons and neutrons is called the?
quark
How do you make an up quark?
Hang a duck upside down while gargling.
What molecules are part of a quark?
Molecules are not part of a quark, quite the reverse.Quarks are theoretical particles that make up, in various combinations, subatomic particles such as protons and neutrons.Protons, neutrons and electrons make up atoms of elements in their various combinations.Atoms of elements make up molecules in their various combinations.
If protons are positive and are made of two up quarks and one down quark why do neutrons have no charge but are made of two down quarks and one up quark?
Neutrons and protons are composite particles made up of combinations of up and down quarks. The charges of the quarks cancel out to give protons a positive charge and neutrons no charge. The overall charge of the neutron is neutral because the two down quarks have negative charges that cancel out the positive charge of the up quark.
