Let's say we have character A's Biological Manipulation is used against character B, who resists Matter Manipulation.
For context:
Character A is a character that has Biological Manipulation. Their Biological Manipulation works at the Molecular level, being capable of affecting and altering their targets via changing all the molecules within the victim's body. This Biological Manipulation also involves Disease Manipulation as one of the core mechanics, as it involves the disease infecting and altering all the genetic structure of the targets (including all of the cells and molecules of the victims) at the molecular level, so the Disease Manipulation similarly works at the Molecular level. In addition, the Biological Manipulation is able to work at 2 layers above baseline, where it is able to affect other characters that possesses resistance to Molecular-level Biological Manipulation at 1 layer above baseline (so they can resist Molecular-level Biological Manipulation that affects characters with Resistance to baseline Molecular-level Biological Manipulation).
Then there is Character B, who is a character that is able to resist Matter Manipulation that works at the Subatomic or Macro-Quantum level. However, character B lacks sufficient resistance to Biological Manipulation (and Disease Manipulation) that works at the level of character A, as character B has only ever has scans that them supports them being able to resist Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation that works at the Cellular level at the absolute best (or at worst, resisting Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation that is not even good enough to be Cellular level). This resistance also appears to only be at the baseline level, so there does not appear to be any layers to the Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation they have resisted.
So, in this case, would character B's resistance to Matter Manipulation at the Subatomic or Macro-Quantum level be able to translate over to resisting Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation at the molecular level? Or would resisting Matter Manipulation not be applicable to resisting Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation, as they are too separate of abilities to qualify, thus character B would get affected via lacking sufficient resistance to the level of character A's abilities?
Or brief summary: Character A's layered Molecular-level Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation > Character B's baseline possibly not-even-Cellular level Resistance to Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation, so would character B's Resistance to Matter Manipulation at the Subatomic or Macro-Quantum level be applicable enough to resist character A's Biological Manipulation and Disease Manipulation abilities?
It would be very helpful if a staff member can also answer this question and confirm what the answer would be.
