Of course, the gravitational pull of the earth is the prime factor here. The apple is being pulled to the centre of the earth, but in most cases is blocked by something .Example, the ground. Gravity is pulling everything toward it, but depending on how heavy it is determines how much force that gravity has over the object. For example:

Gravity has more control over a car than a helium balloon, because the heavier the object, the more gravitational pull it conducts.
