Example: *RED BLOOD CELLS*

Put those many atoms of each substance-3 thousand and 42 atoms of carbon, 4,800 and 12 atoms of hydrogen, 780 atoms of nitrogen,4 atoms of iron, 872 atoms of oxygen, and 12 atoms of sulfur together in the right order and you have the most complex molecule we know of.

It is something so tiny one needs a high powered microscope in order to see it. The speed with which the red blood cell carries out its complex functions is incredible. The complex data it carries is even more mindboggling.

Therefore (Cells are composed of Atoms) and all matter is not only mostly energy, but it is mostly space. This is hardly philosophy disguised as science. This is simple fact. In the above example of the red blood cell, we noted the number of each atoms. This translates to 102,408 charged particles making up the atoms of its structure. These same particles are what is in your computer key board, a wall, a car, rubber, anything. The red blood cell is different because of their arrangement. This creates the red blood cell. Remove the space from that red blood cell and no microscope will be able to detect those tiny particles.

It is the same for everything. Remove the space from it, and you have very little.

It is possible to estimate how many charged particles are in any given substance. Simply consider there are 30,000,000,000 red blood cells in the body. Mathematically, it is possible to determine how many electrons and protons and neutrons make up the blood cells. Add the volume of all tissues, of every atom from calcium to Iron, to whatever. It is beyond number probably. Take all the space out of the human body and all these charged particles would form a pile that is still so small it is invisible.
