= Gunk (mereology)
{wiki=Gunk_(mereology)}
Gunk is a concept in mereology, which is the branch of philosophy that studies the relations between parts and wholes. Specifically, gunk refers to a type of substance or material that is infinitely divisible, meaning that it can be divided into smaller and smaller parts without ever reaching a fundamental or indivisible unit. In the context of mereology, gunk challenges traditional notions of indivisible atoms or smallest parts of matter.
