Molecules
Atoms are essential in the creation of large-scale objects, but along the process of creating something fully realized, molecules are the essential link. Were it not for the chemical bonding between atoms, molecules would not exist, and therefore the infinite amount of forms matter can take on (i.e. a human, an apple, or a mountain) would be impossible. The universe would be a bowl filled with single-atom soup. Molecules allow for diversification in matter and allow the world we live in today to be so unique. While it may be apparent to see the need for molecules, oftentimes the "how" they are created is oversimplified and explained as chemical bonding. The true nature of why these atoms bond to create molecules lies in quantum mechanics.
