Because it takes up space, and anythign that has mass in it is matter.
Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation, not matter. They are characterized by their wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum and are commonly used in cooking and communication technologies.
Galaxies, specifically those with active galactic nuclei like quasars and radio galaxies, can emit microwaves as a result of the activity in their cores. This can be due to interactions between supermassive black holes and surrounding matter producing jets of high-energy particles that emit microwaves when they interact with the interstellar medium.
Microwaves interact with molecules in food and containers by causing them to vibrate rapidly, generating heat through friction. This process is known as dielectric heating, where microwaves penetrate the material and stimulate molecular movement, leading to increased temperature. This phenomenon allows microwaves to efficiently and quickly heat food and containers in a microwave oven.
No, microwaves cannot travel through a vacuum because they require a medium to propagate, like air or glass. A vacuum has no particles for the microwaves to interact with and therefore cannot transmit them.
Microwaves are matter. Everything you can see, touch, smell, hear, or taste w/o the help of instuments are matter. Mcrowaves do emit a small of radioactive particles though, namely alpha. Alpha particles can't even pass through your clothes though and they won't harm you.
Microwaves interact with matter at the atomic level by causing the atoms and molecules to vibrate and generate heat through a process called dielectric heating. This occurs when the microwaves' electromagnetic waves match the natural frequency of the molecules, causing them to absorb the energy and increase in temperature.

The matter absorbs or reflects the light.

The study of how matter and energy interact is commonly known as physics.
physics
Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic energy, which means that they are waves that travel through space that transmit energy from a source to the object with which they will interact, such as food. Other well-known's forms of electromagnetic energy are light, TV, radio, x-rays and more. When these microwaves enter into food, for example, they effect the behavior of molecules such as water and are able to translate their energy into the energy of the water molecules, thereby raising their energy state, which then gets transformed into heat. The big advantage of microwaves when heating things is that, in contrast to ordinary heat which eats an object from the outside, microwave can heat both the outside and the inside simultaneously. But it is critical to understand that microwaves are a form of energy, not a form of heat. It is this energy which creates heat through its interaction with the food.
Dark matter is invisible. It doesn't interact with light.
That sounds like the description of "dark matter".
