The protons is made up of two up
quarks and a single down quarks, held together by a strong nuclear
force, mediated by the gluon, whereas the neutron are made up of two down
quarks and one up quarks mediated by a quantum of interaction called the
gluons. This is why both protons and neutrons are classified as baryons, meaning
hadrons with up to three quarks.
