Matter

Matter is anything that has mass and volume. Matter is also what the universe is made up of. Four general properties of matter are mass, weight, volume, and density. Matter stays the same no matter where you are. Also mass is the amount of matter in an object.

Matter is everything around you. Also anything made of atoms and molecules are matter. As well matter is related to light and electromagnetic radiation. States of matter are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Matter is made up of particles. The temperature of matter depends on how fast the particles move and how much they move.

Matter is very important. Matter controls many things. I believe matter is easy to understand because it is everything, and since it is everything it is easy to learn. Matter is also important to understand. Matter helps you understand why certain things are the way they are. That is my opinion about matter.
