The correct choice is ' b '.
Gravitational forces are equal in both directions.
For example, your weight on the Earth is equal to the Earth's weight on you.

The earths gravity pulls on the moon and keeps it in orbit. The moon's gravity b) pulls back on earth

What is gravity ?

The force that attracts a body towards the center of the earth, or towards any other physical body having mass is called gravity .

Due to gravity , a gravitation force exists because of which bodies attract each other . Gravitational force is an attractive force that exists between all objects with mass; an object with mass attracts another object with mass; the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Since both earth and moon have mass , the earths gravity pulls on the moon and keeps it in orbit and the moon's gravity pulls back on earth by their gravitation force of attraction and because of gravity

hence, correct option is b) pulls back on earth
