Answer:

A: The amout of gravitational force between the object and Earth

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight is just another word for the force of gravity. Weight is a force that acts at all times on all objects near Earth. The Earth pulls on all objects with a force of gravity downward toward the center of the Earth.
