This means that most of your body mass comes from subatomic particles that are made up of quarks. There are hundreds of subatomic particles known and most are composites of simpler particles. They all fit into two categories - baryons and mesons. Baryons are made of three quarks and mesons are comprised of two quarks - a quark and an anti-quark. For a long time, scientists have been puzzled as to why only these quark combinations existed. Some predicted other combinations such as the pentaquark, which consists of five quarks, including an anti-quark. The discovery of the pentaquark, also known as a new exotic baryon state, should have far-reaching consequences for our theory of particle interactions that attempt to explain the structure of matter.
