macroscopic
Macroscopic refers to items, organisms, or phenomena that are large enough to be visible with the naked eye, or items that can be physically manipulated or interacted with, without the need for a microscope or any other special equipment. This term typically contrasts with the term "microscopic," which refers to items that are too small to be seen without the aid of a microscope. For example, a tree, a car, or a cat would be considered macroscopic, as you can see and physically interact with them without a need for any special equipment. On the other hand, bacteria, atoms, or cells would be considered microscopic, as you can't see or interact with them without the aid of a microscope or similar technology.
