They make up protons and neutrons. Protons are 2 up quarks and 1 down, neutrons are the opposite. Electrons are elementary already and aren’t made up of any smaller parts. Put those 3 together, protons neutrons and electrons, and you have an atom. Different amounts of them are what make the difference elements (P+E) and isotopes (N)
