How do atoms and its components become the tangible things we feel at the human scale if they’re not tangible at the atomic level (and have weird properties like the particle wave duality)?

Question

Is there any explanation as to how the interaction between atom components then atoms then molecules and then macrostructures like a tree are so different from one another even though they have the same components?

Answer 1

We’re just huge bubbles of atomic mist interacting with other bubbles of atomic mist. Think of the way magnets can stick together, but they can also repel other magnets without actually touching. Basically that’s how we interact with matter. We don’t *really* touch atom-to-atom. Our bubbles just kind of mess with others.
