ARE ELECTRONS , PROTONS AND NEUTRONS FURTHER DIVIDED INTO SOMETHING?

they r nt further divided bt they can be broken down.Electrons are not composed of constituent particles, so it can not be broken down any farther. Protons and neutrons are a bit different. They are made ofquarks, three a piece. The proton is made of two 'up' quarks and a 'down' quark. The neutron is made of two 'downs' and one 'up'. There are some other types of quarks, six in all. However, due to something called 'color isolation', quarks can not exist on their own. They can only be found as part of combined particles called hadrons (of which protons and neutrons are the most common examples). So it is not like you can break a proton into smaller parts. Those smaller parts can only exist when put together.

Electron is a type of lepton. It can be divided into two quarks. Quarks has fractional charges The charge of electron is -1e. So according to fundamental particle electron have 2 quarks which carry one anti up generation ( -2/3e) and one down generation (-1/3e). When you sum up -2/3e + (-1/3e) =-1e that is electron charge -1e. 

Quarks also can be divided into strings. This is explained by string theory and the m-theory which maybe possible to be a theory of everything
But the size of the protons is a mystery...
protons and neutrons are also made up of Quarks and quarks are made up of Dorks

Yes, It is said that protons and electrons are futher divided into positrons and neutrinos but this is not yet proved or agreed by scientist .
