... Quark Confinement (or confinement of colour): It is not possible to observe isolated quarks (and gluons). They only exist in groups within hadrons. Quarks inside a hadron always appear in colour combinations that result in zero net colour number. Why is this so? Suppose you wanted to remove a quark ...
