Quarks are elementary particles, and as such, they are not composed of any other particles. An individual quark is not "held together" by anything because it is an elementary particle. That said, a number of quarks are held together to form mesons (pairs of quarks) or baryons (three quarks) by what are called gluons. Use the links below to learn more about quarks and gluons.

The force that holds the universe together is gravity. Gravity is responsible for keeping celestial bodies orbiting around each other and for structuring the large-scale distribution of matter in the universe.

As we understand it, the quark is an elementary particle. It makes up composite particles, but taken alone, it has no substructure. That said, the quark is not "held together" by any force as it is not, in itself, made up of other objects. If the question pertains to the force holding groups of quarks together, use the link below to learn about this idea.

The LHC ( Hadron Collider) in Switzerland has discovered a type of subatomic particle called the Xi_b Baryon, also called the cascade particle. Is is made up of either 1 up or 1 down quark and 2 heavier quarks. They have an elementary charge of either +2, +1, or -1, or they are neutral. They get the name cascade becase they decay into lighter particles through multiple decays. They are generally not very stable either.

I am not entirely sure what you mean; lots of things within the Universe (the Solar System, galaxies, galaxy clusters) are held together by gravity. Molecules are held together by electric forces; atomic nuclei are held together by the "strong force".

There are several weak and strong forces that either attract or repel matter. Gravity is the main force that holds the universe together.

The magnetic force of the Sun and slightly by the magnetism of other planets and surrounding bodies. This force is called gravity.

Quarks are bound to each other by gluons. (The antiparticle of the gluon is the antigluon.)
