People have long asked:
"What is the world made of?" and
"What holds it together?"
 What is the World Made of?
 People have come to realize that the matter of the world is made
from a few fundamental building blocks of nature.
 The word "fundamental" is key here. By fundamental building
blocks we mean objects that are simple and structureless -- not
made of anything smaller.
 Even in ancient times, people sought to organize the world around
them into fundamental elements, such as earth, air, fire, and water.
The ATOM
 Is the Atom is fundamental ???
 Nope
 Is the Nucleus Fundamental?
 Because it appeared small, solid, and dense, scientists
originally thought that the nucleus was fundamental. Later,
they discovered that it was made of protons (p+), which are
positively charged, and neutrons (n), which have no charge
 Are protons and neutrons fundamental?
 Physicists have discovered that protons and neutrons are composed
of even smaller particles called quarks.
 As far as we know, quarks are like points in geometry. They're not
made up of anything else.
 After extensively testing this theory, scientists now suspect that
quarks and the electron are fundamental.

(C) 𝜋− + 𝑝 → 𝜋0 + 𝑛0 (D) 𝑝 + 𝑝 → Ʌ0 + Ʌ0
Answer:(c)
Using conservation of baryon number and lepton number.
