A body which flows; i. e., one the cohesion of whose particles is such as to be readily overcome by the force of gravitation, so that the body changes its form without suffering any alteration of its volume, and completely fills the most dependent portion of the vessel in which it is placed. It differs from a gas in presenting no tendency to change its shape except when acted on by an extraneous force and in resisting any attempt to alter its volume.
