The correct answer is Option A — Higgs Boson. The Higgs Boson is nicknamed the 'God Particle' because it was theorized to be responsible for giving mass to all other particles. Option B (Neutron): The neutron is a neutral subatomic particle found in the nucleus. It is NOT called the God Particle. Option C (Pion): A pion (pi-meson) is a subatomic particle involved in the nuclear force. Option D (Positron): A positron is the antimatter counterpart of an electron (positive charge).
