Negative charge is carried by ______

Magnetism is a physical attribute resulting from magnetic fields that allow objects to attract or repel each other. It is one of two aspects of electromagnetism.
Magnetism arises from electric currents and magnetic moments of elementary particles.
Ferromagnetic materials, like iron, cobalt, nickel, and their alloys, are strongly attracted by magnetic fields and can become permanent magnets.
Paramagnetic substances, such as aluminum and oxygen, are weakly attracted to magnetic fields.
Diamagnetic substances, like copper and carbon, are weakly repelled by magnetic fields.
Antiferromagnetic materials, like chromium, have a complex relationship with magnetic fields.
Electric charge is a physical property of matter that causes objects to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field.
Electric charge can be positive or negative; like charges repel each other, unlike charges attract each other.
An object with no net charge is referred to as electrically neutral.
Classical electrodynamics describes early knowledge of how charged substances interact.
Electric charge is a conserved property.
In ordinary matter, negative charge is carried by electrons, and positive charge is carried by protons in the nuclei of atoms.
Charge is quantized and comes in integer multiples of the elementary charge, e.
Quarks carry smaller charges, multiples of 1/3e, but are found only combined in particles with charges that are integer multiples of e.
In the Standard Model, charge is an absolutely conserved quantum number.
