name the three fundamental particles present in an atom

2 answers

The answer I assume you want is
electrons, protons, neutrons. But I have news for you. That's what I taught for years (and was taught for years) but the only REALLY fundamental particle in those three is the electron (as far as we know today). What I'm saying is that the neutron and proton are not fundamental particles; i.e., they are made up of up quarks and down quarks.
Electrons,neutrons and protons
