Why is it when people call the atom the building blocks of life they see no harm in their destruction?
When viewing a atom in it's pure, unaltered state the possibility of fission and a atomic detonation does not come first to mind. When one takes into account the power of a atom, that is when the realization of destruction begins.
People call the atom the building block of life, because it is what what everything in the present, past and future is composed of. There is no sight to their hidden force, that when altered leads to destruction. The reason the harm of destroying a atom is not seen is because there is a unlimited supply of them. The fact that destroying something that all matter is made of, is not viewed as harmful, because when one atom is fission-ed, there is no repercussion to the physical molecular world. The only repercussion is the destruction it will create, along with it's long term health effects.
Basically, an atom is like a grain of sand, if you take one away, nothing will happen. Only when man explodes the atom, the destruction is seen.

What are the basic building blocks of an atom?
The basic building blocks of an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus of the atom, while electrons orbit around the nucleus. Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons have no charge.
Are cells the building blocks of life?
No atoms are everything starts with one simple atom so its not cells that are the building blocks of life it is atoms ........ Learned this in my bio class in gr 9 and 8
Atom to element analogy?
An element is a piece of matter that only contains that one type of atom now an atom is what makes up the element and a compound is a mix of two or more elements that have all of those different types of atom's
What are the 3 building blocks of matter?
The three building blocks of matter are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom, while electrons orbit around the nucleus.
Which are building blocks of elements?
The building blocks of elements are atoms. Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus of the atom, while electrons orbit around the nucleus.
What are the building blocks of all substances?
The building blocks of all substances are atoms. Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Different combinations of atoms form molecules, which further combine to create substances.
Matter is composed of basic building blocks called?
The basic building block of all matter is the atom.
