Answer:

Gravity/ Gravitational acceleration acting on it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of an object is the mass of the object multiplied by the gravitational acceleration(W=mg). That means that no matter which planet or place you are, your mass is constant but your weight varies depending on the gravitational acceleration.
