Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

Scientists have long wanted to find the most basic building blocks of the universe. They asked, “what are the fundamental particles of matter that cannot be subdivided into smaller, simpler particles,” and “what holds these particles together?” The quest for fundamental particles began thousands of years ago. Scientists thought they had finally found them when John Dalton discovered the atom in 1803 (see the timeline in Table below ). The word atom means “indivisible,” and Dalton thought that the atom could not be divided into smaller, simpler particles.
