Question

What is the difference between a fermion and a boson ?

Answer 1

Hint: Fermions are defined as the elementary particles which contain half integral spins whereas Bosons are defined as the particles having integral spins.Quarks and leptons, as well as most composite particles, like protons and neutrons, are fermions.

Complete answer:

Fermions	Boson
Fermions are the group of particles which were found to have their spins of half-integral values such as ${\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}},{\displaystyle \frac{3}{2}},{\displaystyle \frac{5}{2}},....$ are fermions.	Bosons are the group of particles which were found of the integrals such as $0,1,2,\dots ....$and many more are bosons.
They were found to obey Pauli Exclusion principle and also obey Fermi-Dirac statistics.	They obey Bose – Einstein statistics.
They can only be described by Antisymmetric wave function.	They can be represented by symmetric wave function.
It contains popular members such as electron, quarks, neutrino, proton, neutron and many more.	It contains popular members such as photons, gluons, higgs bosons, and many more.
They do not relate to the field quanta.	Usually, bosons relate to the field quanta whose exchange leads to the interaction between the fermions.

Note: Also refer to the standard model of the elementary particles. It describes the theory of the huge concern about the subatomic and the fundamental particles and how they interact. The basic fundamental interactions are taken into consideration.
