To determine the correct answer for this question, we can read through and analyze each response to see which one accurately describes gravitational attraction.
1. "How heavy an object feels" - This phrase does not accurately describe gravitational attraction. Gravitational attraction is not dependent on how heavy an object feels.
2. "The amount of matter in an object" - This phrase accurately describes gravitational attraction. Gravitational attraction is determined by the mass of objects.
3. "How objects respond to changes in mass" - This phrase does not accurately describe gravitational attraction. Gravitational attraction is not about how objects respond to changes in mass.
4. "The pull between objects with mass" - This phrase accurately describes gravitational attraction. Gravitational attraction is the pull between objects that have mass.
From the analysis, we can see that the correct answer is either response 2 or response 4. Both responses accurately describe gravitational attraction.
