Which subatomic particles can be classified as nucleons?

Protons and neutrons are classified as nucleons because they are found within the atomic nucleus of an atom. They are both composed of smaller particles called quarks and are responsible for the majority of an atom's mass.


What is the opposite of nucleons?

Antinucleons! Antiprotons and antineutrons do exist. See Wikipedia entries. == As nucleons are particles in the nucleus of an atom, and that means protons and neutrons, their opposite might be electrons.
