Gravity or gravitation.
The larger and (most importantly) more dense the object - the higher (or greater) the gravity.
So gravity is a function of mass (which takes both density and size into account - since something which is very large but has low density) can have a much lower mass than something which is tiny but has a very high density.
Rotation (spinning) and electrical charge can also play a significant role in determing the gravity of any object.

False. Every object attracts every other object, through the gravitational force.
The exact scientific explanations of gravity are far too complex for this forum. The simple explanation is that every body that has mass attracts every other body that has mass. The more massive the two bodies are the more they attract each other. The more distant they are, the less they attract. Earth has a huge mass, billions and billions of times the size of a human. All of that taken together pulls everything and everyone toward the center of the earth. You may not be aware of it, but your body is also pulling the earth toward you. We can see the effect of a smaller body pulling on a larger one when we see the tides. The moon, a quarter of a million miles away, is affecting the water and the outer crust of the earth, even though the moon is only a little more than 1% of the earth's mass. Further out, tiny Pluto was discovered (in part) because it was affecting the orbits of the gas giant planets Neptune and Uranus.
Gravity is a force.I'm guessing that you're reading something about relativity, have run into the "curved spacetime" part, and are reading a little too much into it.
Every object with any mass has one.
The law of Universal Gravitation states that every object in the universe attracts every other object.
No

Yes. The amount of force depends on the objects' masses, and their distance.
Universal gravitation.
The law of universal gravitation states every object in the universe attracts every other object, the attraction being proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
Gravity causes forces that attract every two objects in the universe toward each other.
Universal Law Of Gravitation States That Every Object In The Universe Attracts Each And Every Other Object With A Force Which Is Directly Proportional To The Masses Of The Body And Inversely Proportional To The Square Of The Distance Between Them.First, all particles with mass attract each other through gravitic force. Two objects (say, you and the Earth) attract each other by the product of their masses (That is, the bigger they are, the more gravitic force they exert). Finally, objects with mass attract each inversely ( or opposite) the distance between them. (Move the objects two times farther away from each other, and the gravitic force between them decreases by four times.) Note that 4 is the square of 2. Another example: if you move the objects 3 times farther away from each other, the force between them decreases by 9 times. Note that 9 is the square of 3.

It's not just Earth that attracts the Moon. Every object in the Universe attracts every other object. The force is called gravity, and depends on the masses and the distance. More mass --> more force. Greater distance --> less force.
The force that 'pulls' every object toward every other object is called universal "gravitation".It operates not only in space, but everywhere, period. It also attracts you toward the earth,and the earth toward you. It is the force that you usually refer to as your "weight".
Gravity causes forces that attract every two specks of mass in the universe toward each other. It happens everywhere.
