Answer 3

The amount of gravity by an object is proportional to the mass of the object. In other words, objects with more mass will exert more gravity than objects with less mass. Distance also affects gravity. The amount of gravity decreases as the distance between two objects increases. These changes in the amount of gravity occur even on Earth. The farther away you are from the center of the Earth, the less gravity there is between you and the Earth. If you were on the Moon, the amount of gravity between you and the Earth would be even less.

It was a cool, cloudy morning in Moraga. The rain was sure to start pouring at any moment. Miguel picked up his pace. He was jogging on a dirt trail through a redwood forest.

As he listened to birds breaking into their morning songs, Miguel sighed and wished that his life was a fertile forest full of living things.
