Quarks: They Make up (a lot of) The Universe

Hello! I'm back!!

In this video I’m going to look at Quarks, and their relationship with the matter of the universe.
Ok so lets start off with matter. This is the stuff that makes up much of the visible universe. Matter is made from atoms, and atoms are made from protons and neutrons collected in the nucleus, and electrons in a sort of cloud around the nucleus. If we look more closely at the protons and neutrons, we find that they are in turn made up of even more fundamental particles called quarks, but what are quarks.
Quarks are part of the standard model of particle physics, which we can see here, and there are 6 types of quark, and we call the different types flavours. The 6 flavours are, Up, down, top, bottom, strange and charm. Up, down and strange are grouped together as they are lighter, and the top, bottom and charm are grouped together as they are heavier.
