It's a very direct relationship; weight is caused by gravity.
weight = mass x gravity
Therefor, if gravity goes up and mass stays constant weight, goes up. And the reverse is true if gravity goes down and mass stays constant, weight goes down.

How does gravity affect the object's mass and weight?
Gravity affects weight, it does not affect mass.
Does gravity have an affect on mass?
No. Mass (e.g. grams) is a measure of matter, and is independent of gravity. Weight (e.g. pounds) is a measure of force and is directly related to gravity.
Does Gravity affect Matter?
Yes.
What does matter have when it is pulled by gravity?
weight
Does gravity affect weight?
Yes it affects weight, but not mass.
What happens to weight as mass increases?
Nothing, "mass" is a property of matter and is constant. Weight is the force of attraction of one mass to another (the affect of gravity on a mass). Thus if weight increases it means that the mass is in a stronger gravity field.
Do gravity affect the weight of an object?
Yes. Mass is constant for a given object. Weight is a function of mass and gravity, stronger gravity more weight.
Is weight a measure of the quantity of matter?
NO, weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on an object. Weight=mass x gravity
What kinds of motion does gravity affect?
weight
What is gravity and how does it affect matter?
Gravity is a force between any two masses.
How does weight affect gravity?
Weight is the force generated by mass when it is in a gravitational field. When a body is outside of a gravitational field, it is weightless but it still has mass.So gravity doesn't exactly affect weight; gravity causes mass to have weight.
What factors affect on specific gravity of matter?
water ...
