Quark structure

For a neutral pion and a neutral kaon.
Three quarks for Muster Mark!
Sure he hasn't got much of a bark
And sure any he has it's all beside the mark.
But O, Wreneagle Almighty, wouldn't un be a sky of a lark
To see that old buzzard whooping about for uns shirt in the dark
And he hunting round for uns speckled trousers around by Palmer-
stown Park?
Hohohoho, moulty Mark!
You're the rummest old rooster ever flopped out of a Noah's ark
And you think you're cock of the wark.
Fowls, up! Tristy's the spry young spark
That'll tread her and wed her and bed her and red her
Without ever winking the tail of a feather
And that's how that chap's going to make his money and mark!

π0=uuˉ or ddˉ\displaystyle \pi ^{0} = \mathrm{u\bar{u}} \ \text{or} \ \mathrm{d\bar{d}}

K0=usˉ or sdˉ\displaystyle \mathrm{K}^{0} = \mathrm{u\bar{s}} \ \text{or} \ \mathrm{s\bar{d}}

ah i see so kaons contain a strange quark whereas pions contain an up and down quark.

Precisely. Kaons have a characteristic known as strangeness. You won't need to memorise these for the exam though, just know neutrons and protons.

Actually for the exam board which i do you need to know them with the quark structure of neutrons and protons.
