Magnitude - sheer size.
A quark is tiny - it takes 3 to make a single proton.
A quasar is a "quasi star" and is actually an entire galaxy with its core on fire
(not actual fire with flames, but in the act of constantly blowing up).

Quasar in a sentence?
Astronomers have detected a quasar in a distant galaxy.
What is the correct spelling for a quasar?
it depends on how you're using it. quasar sounds correct if it's a thing
What words are contracted in the word quasar?
The word quasar is short for quasi-stellar radio source.
What is the line through the middle of a quasar?
A quasar is a lot like a black hole, in that it was once a star. There are many spikes that do project from the center of the quasar. These are optical spikes. they are like a glare that the telescopes see when they look at a star. if you look at the sun off of a mirror, you can see the same optical spikes from the sun. It is basically a You can also see another line that extends from both sides of the quasar. These lines that you see are actually super heated gas that has been shot out from the center of the quasar. These streams extend many light-years away from the quasar. If you want to learn more, look at some of the Hubble pictures of quasars.
What does a Quasar look like?
Quasars are too far away for a real photo, [but the related link] has an artists impression of what a quasar should look like.
Science words that starte with a q?
quartz (a type of rock) quasar quark quaternion (this is technically a mathematical term)
Why would astronomers be interested in the difference between a black hole and a quasar?
They are separate phenomenon and different principals are in action.
What is the difference between cottage cheese and quark?
quark is made from buttermilk. cottage cheese is made from milk. .
Is down quark heavier than up quark because neutron is heavier than proton?
The two are related, yes, but technically it would be more accurate to say it the other way around: "Neutrons are heavier than protons because down quarks are heavier than up quarks" Neutrons are composed of an up quark and two down quarks (udd). Protons are composed of two up quarks and one down quark (uud), so the difference in mass between a proton and neutron is (roughly) the same as the difference in mass between the neutron's down quark and the proton's matching up quark. Because a down quark is heavier than an up quark, it is also possible for a down quark to decay into an up quark (releasing an electron in the process). This is how beta radiation occurs in atomic nuclei. One of the neutrons' down quarks decays into an up quark, changing that neutron into a proton, and releasing an electron (as radiation), so another way to look at it would be that a down quark is an up quark that has an electron trapped inside it (the mass of the electron, plus the energy required to "trap" it there, is what makes the down quark heavier).
What are some science words that begin with the letters q?
There are three scientific words that actually starts with Q. Quantum, Quantum Mechanics and Quark. Quantum is defined as portion, Quantum Mechanics is a branch of physics that studies about the behavior of atom and Quark is a set of six elementary particles that have electric charges.
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).
Is Quasar 247 a true quasar?
It is not.
The difference between a quark and a lepton is?
Quarks experience all four fundamental interactions, whereas leptons only experience three. Leptons do not experience the strong interaction.
What is an anti-charm quark?
An anti-strange quark is an antiquark corresponding to the strange quark.
What is an anti-down quark?
An anti-up quark is an antiquark which corresponds to the up quark.
What is an anti-beauty quark?
An anti-beauty quark is an obsolete term for the anti-bottom quark.
When was Quasar Padamsee born?
Quasar Padamsee was born in 1978.
