While a person's weight would be different on the moon and planets, would the amount of matter making up the person (mass) be the same or different? why? could someone give me a simplified answer to this question because I am having a hard time understanding this specific question. thank you.

Same. The different planet's gravity force only effects that person's mass density. However, the gravity does stretch one's molecules.

The amount of matter making up the person would be different because all planets have different pull force (gravity). This question to me is very complicated so all i know is this information..sorry.
