Greeks wanted to understand nature 1st theory Substances are composed of 4 elements Earth, Air, Fire Water 2nd theory Matter ATOMS by Leucippus and Democritus TRANSMUTATIO N- transformation of one element into another PLATO transmutation is achieved by changing the shape of the atoms ARISTOTLE elements and substances are made up of PRIMARY MATTER. Transformation is achieved when the form (shape, color etc.) is altered www.company.com
