Not all of them are; the only direct subatomic part of the atom that is fundamental is the electron (which is a type of lepton.) Only particles made up of no smaller parts are called fundamental particles. For example, the proton (just like the neutron, except with a small difference) is not a fundamental particle because it is made of quarks, which are fundamental particles.
