Does the wave-paticle duality applies to photon only when a photon is behaving like a particle or a wave (which is not simultaneous), or can it be also applied to a photon which is behaving like a particle and a wave simultaneously?

By wave particle duality, a photon is both a wave and particle (having mass) in a state of superposition. Why then do we assume it to be massless?

Are measurements of quantum objects, as modelled by mathematical wave functions, related to the idea that most functions are approximately linear over sufficiently small distances?

Does an EM wave for a single photon emanate from its source in all directions (spherically)? Or does it have a direction (like drawing a wave on a paper)? Or is it like the explanations of the two-slit experiment- a wave on a plane?

If we could observe subatomic particles without disturbing them, would they still be in a state of superposition (i.e. both a particle and a wave)?

Why is the wave-particle duality of light depicted as a longitudinal wave in this diagram - surely this implies that in-between every wave from there is a line of points where the probability of fining the photon is zero, even before the two slits?

In the double slit experiment, when we are not observing the slits, the electron passes through both slits at the same time. How is it common sense to observe the slits and still want the electron to pass through both slits at the same time?
