Physicist Murray Gell-Mann coined the term "quark" for what was then referred to as a parton. The name is a literary reference to James Joyce's book Finnegans Wake:
Three quarks for muster mark
Quark is also a type of German cheese, kinda like pureed cottage cheese with a touch of sour cream added. Good substitute for cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, cream cheese, or sour cream in recipes. Makes excellent chip dip as is.

quarks are located in the protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus of an atom.
observable ? i'd say quarks.
The nucleus is composed of Protons and Neutrons. Protons and neutrons are composite particles, consisting of quarks. A proton contains two up quarks and one down quark, while a neutron consists of one up quark and two down quarks; the quarks are held together in the nucleus by gluons.
The electron is considered to be an elementary particle and not composed of other particles, so there are no quarks in an electron. Particles composed of quarks are called Hadrons, the best-known being the Proton and the Neutron. The electron, on the other hand, is a Lepton.
"There are six types of quarks, known as flavors: up, down, charm, strange, top, and bottom. Up and down quarks have the lowest mass of all quarks. The heavier quarks rapidly change into up and down quarks through a process of particle decay: the transformation from a higher mass state to a lower mass state. For this reason, up and down quarks are generally stable and the most common in the universe, whereas charm, strange, top, and bottom quarks can only be produced in high energy collisions (such as those involving cosmic rays and in particle accelerators)." -Copied word for word from wikipedia.
In an atom, the neutrons and protons are made up of up quarks and down quarks. Strange quarks, charms quarks, top quarks, and bottom quarks also exist, but do not play as much of a role in the structure of an atom.
Each proton and neutron is made up of three quarks.
Hadrons are composed of 3 quarks. Protons and neutrons are hadrons. The 2 types of quarks used in this instance are up quarks and down quarks. Yes, there are quarks in a nucleus.
Quarks and anti-quarks
There are six quarks, the up, down, charm, strange, top, and bottom quarks.
Up quarks Down quarks Bottom quarks Top Quarks Charm quarks Strange Quarks and then there were leptons... simple- 8 protons 8 electrons 8 Neutrons and if you're dumb and you mean what is in air, then why don't you learn how to google
