Final answer:
Everything is made of 6 quarks, 6 leptons, and bosons as carrier particles. Quarks make up hadrons like protons and neutrons, while leptons include the electron, and bosons are force carriers.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer to the student's question is a) Quarks, leptons, bosons. The sentence should read: Everything is made of 6 quarks that make protons and neutrons; 6 leptons, the best-known lepton is the electron; bosons carrier particles. Quarks are fundamental particles that make up protons and neutrons. They come in six flavors and combinations that produce hadrons, including baryons and mesons. Leptons are another type of fundamental particle, with the electron being the most well-known lepton. Leptons do not interact via the strong nuclear force. Finally, bosons are carrier particles that mediate the four fundamental forces in the universe, including, for instance, the photon which mediates the electromagnetic force.
