Matter in the world around us is composed of atoms. Yes, it's composed of molecules, but they're composed of atoms. Atoms come in many different flavors (elements), but all atoms are composed of three fundamental building blocks. (Let's not roll out the particle zoo here. And give those strings a rest.) The building blocks of atoms are electrons, protons and neutrons. Any atom of any element can be built with a combination of electrons, protons and neutrons. These three fundamental building blocks make up all the atoms of all the molecules of the world around us - and even make us up, too.

What are soft particles and how do they differ from other types of particles?

Soft particles are small, flexible particles that can change shape easily. They differ from other types of particles, like hard particles, because they are more deformable and can move more freely in response to external forces.
