If we catch you Googling or engaged in other sneakery, we’ll make you write on the whiteboard 100 times:

Hadrons, which are composite particles made of quarks held together by the strong force, are categorized as either baryons (three quarks) or mesons (one quark and one antiquark). Scientists suspect that there are other kinds of hadrons, such as tetraquarks (exotic mesons) and pentaquarks (exotic baryons), but there is no conclusive proof.
