2. ANYTHING that has mass and takes up space. ANYTHING that has mass and takes up space.

3. Define Matter: ANYTHING that has mass and takes up space. ANYTHING that has mass and takes up space. Matter is neither created nor destroyed Matter is neither created nor destroyed

4. Define Matter: ANYTHING that has mass and takes up space. ANYTHING that has mass and takes up space. Matter is neither created nor destroyed Matter is neither created nor destroyed There is the same amount of matter on the planet now as was here when Earth was formed There is the same amount of matter on the planet now as was here when Earth was formed
