Question
All matter is made of tiny particles called Response area. Each atom contains a Response area in which positively-charged protons and neutrons (no charge) can be found. Negatively-charged electrons orbit around the nucleus and control the Response area of an object. Most objects are neutrally charged, meaning for each object, its atoms contain about the same number of protons and electrons. Neutral charges of objects can become positive or negative by rubbing against other objects and transferring Response area. When atoms of an object gain electrons, the object becomes Response area charged; when electrons are lost, it becomes Response area charged. Like in magnets, these charges create fields around objects that can repel or attract other objects. Two objects with like charges will Response area one another while objects with unlike charges will Response area one another. Think about what happens when a balloon is rubbed against a person's hair. The electrons are transferred, giving one object a positively-charged field and the other a negatively-charged field. This explains the person's charged hair will move toward the charged balloon, even if the balloon is not touching the person's hair. If the charged fields come close enough to one another, they can repel or attract, depending on their charges.

It looks like there's a recurring concept called "Response area" that you've used in place of specific terms related to atomic structure, electric charge, and electrostatic interactions. Let's replace "Response area" with the correct terminology, so the explanation becomes clearer:

All matter is made of tiny particles called **atoms**. Each atom contains a **nucleus** in which positively-charged protons and neutrons (which have no charge) can be found. Negatively-charged electrons orbit around the nucleus and control the **electrical properties** of an object. Most objects are neutrally charged, meaning they have about the same number of protons and electrons. Neutral charges of objects can become positive or negative by rubbing against other objects and transferring **electrons**.
When atoms of an object gain electrons, the object becomes **negatively charged**; when electrons are lost, it becomes **positively charged**. Like in magnets, these charges create **electric fields** around objects that can repel or attract other objects. Two objects with like charges will **repel** one another, while objects with unlike charges will **attract** one another.
Think about what happens when a balloon is rubbed against a person's hair. The electrons are transferred, giving one object a positively charged field and the other a negatively charged field. This explains why the person's charged hair will move toward the charged balloon, even if the balloon is not touching the person's hair. If the charged fields come close enough to one another, they can repel or attract, depending on their charges.
