The force of gravity, called gravitational force, pulls every object that weighs anything (has mass) toward every other object that has mass. The closer the objects are, the higher their force of gravity on each other.

The force of gravity is a mutual attraction; the Earth pulls on you, and you pull on the Earth. Of course, the effect on you is more noticeable, given the difference in weight.
Heavenly bodies revolve around the sun because of the gravitational pull that the sun exerts on them. This gravitational force keeps the planets and other objects in orbit around the sun, following a path determined by the balance between the object's inertia and the gravitational pull of the sun.
The force of mutual gravitational attraction between the earth and any other object pulls the object toward the center of the earth, and pulls the earth toward the center of the object. Both pulls have equal strength.
The Earth's gravitational force keeps it from moving away into outer space. (* Gravity is a mutual force of attraction between matter, so the Earth pulls on the Moon while the Moon pulls on the Earth.)
The gravitational attraction of the mass in the galaxies comprising the cluster.
Yes, in a sloppy manner of speaking. A better way to say it is that gravity is a property of mass and space that causes forces of attraction between every pair of masses.
The force that pulls masses downwards is gravity. It is the force of attraction between all objects that have mass.

It is the gravitation attraction on the World's oceans from our Sun and Moon.
The gravitational attraction between you and the Earth is called gravity. It is the force that keeps you from floating off into space and pulls you back down when you jump.
Two factors contribute to gravitational attraction; mass, and distance. The Moon isn't all that massive, astronomically speaking, but it is right next door. No other body is close enough, except for one really massive object; the Sun.

The force that pulls electrons and protons together is electromagnetic force. This force is responsible for the attraction between opposite charges (electrons are negatively charged and protons are positively charged), which keeps the electrons orbiting the nucleus of an atom.
The reaction force to Earth's gravity on the diver is the gravitational attraction that the diver exerts back on Earth. According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In this case, the Earth pulls the diver down, and the diver also pulls the Earth up with an equal force.
No, there was no attraction between the comb and kerosene. Attraction refers to the force that pulls objects together due to their different electric charges, which does not apply to the interaction between a non-charged comb and a liquid like kerosene.
That force is called gravity. Gravity is a force of attraction that pulls objects with mass toward one another. The strength of gravity depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them.
