Which subatomic particles are found in the nucleus?
A
Protons and Electrons
B
Neutrons and Electrons
C
Protons and Neutrons
D
Electrons only
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Protons and neutrons are present inside the nucleus of an atom while electrons revolve around circular orbits.

Detailed explanation-2: -Inside protons and neutrons are two more subatomic particles: quarks and gluons. Quarks are in the fermion category of fundamental particles, and there are three of them in each proton and neutron. They are bound together by gluons, which are categorized as bosons.

Detailed explanation-3: -The nucleus itself is generally made of protons and neutrons but even these are composite objects. Inside the protons and neutrons, we find the quarks, but these appear to be indivisible, just like the electrons.

Detailed explanation-4: -Atomic nuclei consist of electrically positive protons and electrically neutral neutrons. These are held together by the strongest known fundamental force, called the strong force. The nucleus makes up much less than . 01% of the volume of the atom, but typically contains more than 99.9% of the mass of the atom.

Detailed explanation-5: -Subatomic particles are particles that are smaller than the atom. Protons, neutrons, and electrons are the three main subatomic particles found in an atom.
