What property (resistance, capacitance) changes in electret microphone when it receives sound?

I hooked up a two terminal microphone to an ohmmeter and it showed 3.145 kΩ and it changed a little bit like an ohm or two when i blew into the mic.

I noticed that electret and piezo microphones look almost the same? how do i recognize electret vs piezo microphone?
 

See the attached PDF , very good article about electrets.
