Active matter refers to a class of materials composed of numerous self-propelling or self-organizing units, often at the microscopic scale. These units can be living organisms, like bacteria or algae, or non-living systems that exhibit similar properties. The unique feature of active matter is that it consumes energy from its environment to produce movement or create organized structures, often leading to complex behavior and patterns.
