The image is absent (but it's not essential to resolve the issue).

The right response is A) decreases, as gravitational force is inversely related to the square of the distance. The magnitude of the gravitational force between two masses M and m, separated by a distance d, is expressed as
$F=G \frac{Mm}{d^2}$
where G is the gravitational constant. The formula demonstrates that as the distance d between the two masses increases, the force magnitude diminishes.

B; Decreases

This is because

the image illustrates that with increasing distance between two objects, the gravitational force weakens. The strength of gravity is influenced by both the distance between the two objects and their masses
