How is the moon's orbit around the earth related to an apple falling from a tree?

Question 3 options:

The earth's gravity keeps the moon in orbit, and also pulls objects toward the ground


The earth, the moon, and an apple are all spherical, so they all have gravity


The moon's gravity hold apples on tree branches, while the earth's gravity pulls apples toward the ground


The moon's gravity affects bodies of water; the earth's gravity affects solid objects
